Stock ftpd is single file /usr/libexec/ftpd sized 112KBytes uncompressed (71KB compressed with ZFS lz4 online compression) and this is less than MAXPHYS=128K in current FreeBSD releases. Minimizing the base system makes it another kind of Linux instead of solid operating system we love. _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
