Or is this something that >people aren't so excited about ? Probably need to send this to -current instead of -hackers. Also, pick a subject that says something about "patches for review". Also note that people are in the middle of pushing out the 3.4-release, so they might not have time to read all of the articles in hackers right now. I'm interested in the idea of per-CPU timekeeping, but at the moment I don't have a 4.x-current system setup, so I can't try this... I know I've seen others ask for detail at the per-CPU level, although I obviously don't know if your patch does exactly what they were asking for. --- Garance Alistair Drosehn = gad@eclipse.acs.rpi.edu Senior Systems Programmer or drosih@rpi.edu Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
