Are they believed to have been fixed in recent -CURRENT? 5.3 has been reported to be significantly slower on many machines -- something that we've seen in our own tests. Some of these may have been fixed in -CURRENT, but this would not do us any good. We only run release versions of FreeBSD on our production servers, and then only update them with security fixes. We abolutely WON'T track -CURRENT on a production machine, or take a random sample of it on a random day, due to the many difficulties that this can cause. --Brett Glass
