I had "top" open on the machine being attacked and the CPU never seemed to drop below 99.6% idle. However, when I installed the same patch on a 3.3 -STABLE machine and ran stream.c against it the CPU immediately droped below 80% percent idle. Is that patch designed for all versions of STABLE or just 3.4 ? --Brian On Thu, 27 Jan 2000, Wes Peters wrote: > Warner Losh wrote: > > > > In message "Nicholas W.
