Thus spake phk@FreeBSD.ORG <phk@FreeBSD.ORG>: > I'm actually more than a bit of mind to rip out the entire bogus > swap-stripe code: If you want swap on a striped disk, you should > use hardware, controller, vinum, ccd or raidframe to stripe. Ccd is a nice simple solution, but by using it you lose the ability to dynamically add and remove swap and play other tricks like swap device prioritization. (Actually, prioritization would require a better abstraction for the swap subsystem anyway.) On the other hand, the static limit on the number of devices is annoying. But the point is that the swap striping code isn't entirely redundant. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
