The latest patch is: http://www.freebsd.org/~dyson/sysjun07b.diff.gz SMP performance should be much better than standard -current, and this code embodies the most of the changes necessary to support kernel threads properly in the VM code. I guess that there are still some interrupt latency problems for SIO, but YMMV. All in all, the system is much more responsive, and this code should fix a myriad of bugs. Cleaned up versions of these changes will be committed next weekend. Included in these changes are LL support of per-CPU kernel stacks for threaded processes (higher level kernel support isn't there yet), a little support for CPU affinity, and much more intelligent usage of TLB IPI's. The number of bugs fixed is overwhelming. John To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
