I support your proposal. But, have a question: Has anyone actually measured the performance impact of INVARIANTS? I'm tempted to suggest that INVARIANTS should be the default in not only -current in 5.0 when she's released. Anyone interested in performance in 5.0 will build custom kernels, and so he can turn INVARIANTS off. -- Steve To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
