jemalloc is certainly the first thing that came to my mind. Does MALLOC_PRODUCTION need to be defined on a 9.0 system, or is that something that gets turned on automatically in an official release build? (I'm always working with non-release stuff so I'm not sure how that gets handled). -- Ian _______________________________________________ freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-hackers-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
