: :> The problem with that 92K of data space is that it contains :> data elements for the entire libc library, not just the :> pieces you use. The result is that even if you only use a :> small part of libc, you will still wind up dirtying many of :> those pages due to the fact that the few elements you do :> use are spread all over that 92K of data space. : :You might want to check this, actually. How much statically initialised :data is there in libc? Not much. 8) You may touch a lot of that 92k, :but you're not going to COW very much at all, so you still get the LOR :benefits. As far as I can tell, Mike, *I* am the *ONLY* one posting actual test results on this topic. Maybe you should run your own tests rather then just assuming I am wrong and telling me to run more. -Matt To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-arch" in the body of the message
