Spikes the CPU usage in 'ps aux', but that's about it. If I can get my plucky IP32 R10K to boot again soon, I may try it there for kicks and giggles. Maybe we're also seeing a side effect of the R10K's spec exec knocking the non-cache-coherent machines out? Also, tried building the code with the R10K cache barrier on to see if anything else changes? Generally reserved for kernel stuff, but Peter once speculated userland might have a use for it. --Kumba -- Gentoo/MIPS Team Lead "Such is oft the course of deeds that move the wheels of the world: small hands do them because they must, while the eyes of the great are elsewhere." --Elrond
