Doug Barton once stated: =dougb 2000/11/20 20:35:29 PST = = Modified files: (Branch: RELENG_4) = etc crontab = Log: = MFC 1.23, more generally accepted time to run the periodic/daily job. = = Revision Changes Path = 1.21.2.2 +2 -2 src/etc/crontab While someone "is there", could all the entries be changed to include exec in them, where sensible? It appears, our shell is not about to wise up any time soon to avoid forking when the command line consists of a single command. With explicit exec there will be a little bit of saving. For example: -59 1 * * * root periodic daily +59 1 * * * root exec periodic daily BTW, bash does not have this problem, but tcsh does :( Don't know about zsh or ksh. -mi To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe cvs-all" in the body of the message
