Hi all,
A good spot o' webtrawling has left me with the impression that Rik
Riel is Linux's only hope of ever competing with FreeBSD on large jobs
other than dbench.
Is this true? Judging by the ease with which AA's hackwork made it into
2.4, I think we may all be, well, fucked.
I wonder if Linus has booted 5-CURRENT lately.
Alarmed,
Duraid.

2.4 is now in good hands. Now be careful before the sun comes up and you get
turned to stone ;)

Oh, this has something to do with that "don't feed the..." thing?

I take it you're volunteering to do tests of the AA VM and
of my -rmap VM patch, pointing out weak points in both VMs?
(not necessarily performance bugs ... more situations where
one or both of the VMs just "fall apart completely", the stuff
that really needs to be fixed)
regards,
Rik
