Not that is safe thing to have on a system but on benchmarks |it looks good. | | Amancio But of course it also depends on the particular driver, sometimes mostly so. The benchmarks I ran on Linux systems last fall certainly showed that; both NetBSD and FreeBSD were quite a bit faster than Linux 1.1.59 running the ncr controller. I have been politely asking my Linux acquaintences for an update, to no avail. Wonder why? The upshot is I don't think there is anything significant gained by ffs2, in real systems. Russell
