A bug in g++ exceptions on 7?

Howdy, We believe we've found a bug in the libgcc or libstdc++ library (not sure which one) packaged with the gcc43 port in fbsd7 on an Intel x86-64. A program linked against those libraries aborts when an exception is thrown. It does not abort if -lpthread is added to the link line, even though

Some odd behaviour of vmstat and vmtotal...

Howdy, In deploying 7.0 at work we were finding a persistent problem when running "vmstat 1" on systems. The problem shows up as a 10ms "pause" in processing, usually packet stamping and forwarding by a user level process. This is due to the fact that vmstat calls the vmtotal() routine which in

igb doesn't compile in STABLE?

Re: benchmark

You should try ports/net/netpipe which has the nice side effect of shoving different message sizes across, and tends to show lots of interesting performance issues. Best, George ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman
