There is a trade off between the amount of sanity checking and performance. We need to make sure that any sanity checking we add doesn't make the system unusably slow or adversely impact interrupt response. It's up the the relevant developers to make sure that a `reasonable' level of sanity checking is done.

This means that invariants need to add relatively little overhead. Peter To Unsubscribe: send mail to majord...@freebsd.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
