I think we should only have __predict() obfuscation if there is a benchmark showing an indisputable performance gain. Otherwise it is just cruft making the code hard to read. I suspect that a Linux app calling execve() is not a sufficient critical path to warrant any of these. -- John Baldwin _______________________________________________ svn-src-head@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/svn-src-head To unsubscribe, send any mail to "svn-src-head-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
