Yes, but that's more an implementation detail, so didn't think it was worth bringing up unless there was actual interest in the project first. > Also, should this project be extended beyond just a net-snmp module, and > perhaps instrumenting the kernel more with kstats (ie, counters in fp(7d), > which is something near and dear to my heart) which would of course then > bubble up to the proposed? If we want to add more, I'm fine with that, but I'd like to defer some of that is possible just to prevent the project from trying to do too much at once -- at least for any work that I'd be doing. If others have parts that they think would fit in with this that they'd want to work on that could be delivered without a lot of interdependencies, I'm all for it. _______________________________________________ perf-discuss mailing list perf-discuss@opensolaris.org
