I'm used to see FreeBSD remembered as a traditional OS full of professionali=
sm
and open to innovation. The front door for the BSD world and an OS that does=
n't
copy Linux. But more and more I'm seeing that BSD will need a new front door=

soon, that this OS is becoming more and more another Linux, that professiona=
lism
is being left aside and that innovation is being undone and/or simply erased=
.
I wish I were about to write that it's the first time in a lot of time that I=
 see a problem
being systematically recreated but this isn't true either. And I feel sad I'=
m being
getting used to this, too.

Mark Millard found that LLVM multi-threaded linker is buggy on Armv7 and rep=
orted
it in another thread. I commented on it, even. It wasn't mention in that thr=
ead that the
numbers there shows another problem recreated that must be solved again. The=

processes there were killed *before* virtual memory started to being heavily=
 used. This
goes against the intended use of virtual memory. If virtual memory isn't use=
d it's lost
resource: a thing that must be removed from the system, optimized away. In t=
hat
specific case, virtual memory should have entered into place, being fully fi=
lled and then
the process will be killed. And just to be complete, the non-debuggability o=
f LLVM were
a known problem of LLVM by the time of the discussions that lead to it's imp=
ort in the
tree.
