Hi,
i wonder if some form of pageable memory is available (or will be, or
can be done with relatively little effort) to pieces of the lower half
of the kernel. The reason is, the PGM implementation i am working on
might need to work with really huge windows (megabytes) and on the
sender side it is not unlikely to have to store a whole file whatever
its size is.
I suppose sendfile() might have to deal with a similar problem ?
cheers
luigi
