I'd be interested in benchmark comparisons with/without this patch, if anyone cares to run lmbench, kernbench etc. with and without... If the performance impact is minimal I'll be happy to apply it. If the impact is noticeable then it might need to be selectable with a config option. Paul. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
