"Dear Mr. President. There are too many states nowadays. Please eliminate three. I am not a crackpot!"
http://www.snpp.com/episodes/9F16.html Why in the name of all that is good? My process list features 7 gettys, it's true, but they're utterly insignificant compared to the 194 other processes that come out of 'ps aux'. This includes over 60 system processes (denoted with square brackets). If you're worried about 'human readable' process lists, why not start with those? Moreover, some people actually use multiple consoles. For me, what you propose would be quite different from an 'enhancement.' IANAD, but it seems like you're inventing a problem that doesn't exist, then proposing something mildly offensive to fix it. -Brandon Jérôme Bouat wrote: > Hello, > > > I think that only 2 virtual terminals instead of 6 would be enough. > > I understand that most of the memory of the virtual terminals is shared. > However, it would decrease the number of processes (more human readable > process list, less processes context switch, ...). > > There is no small enhancement. > > > Regards. > -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
