You are absolutely correct in regards to the anonymous area already being zero. I would like to commit with the memset()'s in just for uniformity and then make another pass to remove them. (there's no real issue of cpu waste since we are going to take faults on the anonymous pages anyway). -Matt Matthew Dillon To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
