If UFS on a swap-backed md(4) is configured without SU and with trim enabled, then it should be very similar to tmpfs. Even more similar if the UFS mount is sync. Except in the case when the files from such mount are mmaped, in which case UFS inherently performs double-copy. _______________________________________________ svn-src-head@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/svn-src-head To unsubscribe, send any mail to "svn-src-head-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
