In fact, there was a long thread on it recently, with many different viewpoints to choose from. One benefit of dealing with this stuff in freebsd-questions is that all the messages are archived and searchable together at http://www.freebsd.org/search.html. After reading what was said there, you will probably decide not to tie yourself down to fixed sizes so much, but that's up to you. All the relevant issues were raised in the archives. -- Regards, -*Sue*- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message
