It's ok to use the 4K for now. I'm sure there are more dangerous places in the code where we're currently using a 4K buffer for SDs or ACLs as well. However... am I doing something wrong? I'm trying to find out what the performance improvement is on my XP box and both versions of the DLL (w/ and w/o your patch) are running 7.5 minutes for ls -lR /proc/registry > /dev/null Or is that only a problem on older systems? You're running NT4SP5, right? Other than that your patch looks fine. Corinna -- Corinna Vinschen Please, send mails regarding Cygwin to Cygwin Developer mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Red Hat, Inc.
