I have downloaded FreeBSD 3.1-RELEASE and applied Matthew Dillon's patch
postes very recently.  Here are my results:

# date; time find -x /usr/src > /dev/null; date
Wed Apr 21 19:45:06 GMT 1999
0.255u 0.841s 0:30.75 3.5%      21+317k 2284+0io 1pf+0w

# date ; time find -x /usr/src > /dev/null ; date
Wed Apr 21 19:45:42 GMT 1999
0.328u 0.476s 0:02.62 30.1%     25+377k 0+259io 0pf+0w
Wed Apr 21 19:45:45 GMT 1999

The first time I run find command, the time elapsed is 30 seconds,
comparable to the kernel without patch.  The second time I run find
command, the time elapsed is only 2 seconds.  And if I interprete the
output of time correctly, the first time we did 2284 I/O read, 0 I/O
write.  The second time we did 0 I/O read, 259 I/O write.

If I am wrong, please correct me.  The machine is Pentium 233 with 64M
memory.  I did this test via a remote log in.
