I think nothing of it... My opinions wouldn't matter a tiny little
bit. :-)

Still, after reading the Samba reply to the Microsoft, err,
Mindcraft NTvsLinus benchmark, and the comments on tuning through
/proc, I have to say I'd feel disgusted to have something like that
on FreeBSD. It gave a whole new meaning to the word "arcane".

Still, I'm against process privacy. We ought to be able to know
anything about how a process is using *our* (the system's)
resources. At least until we get proper compartimentalized security,
which a number of people few is very un-Unix-like. :-)
