Hello, I've installed 5.0-rc2 and read the web site extensively. What I hope someone can direct me to is some sort of a primer as to the kernel functions that set freebsd apart for creating high-performance network applications. I found the zero_copy reference in the release notes to 5.0-rc2 which was great. I also found another mention in absolute bsd for a very high performance function (sorry, the name escapes me at present). I also see that sendfile is present. What I was hoping for is some sort of developers primer. The document on the site doesn't seem to include these things. Is there a FAQ somewhere or some book I should consult? Also any help as to which mailing lists I should subscribe to (development, new releases, new features, etc.) would be greatly appreciated. I'm looking forward to 2003 as a year to switch to freebsd. thanks in advance! ============== Jeff Adams intensifi@earthlink.net To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
