I'm curious what the problem was. The patch was big enough that I couldn't tell what exactly it fixed. All the simple select test cases I tried worked fine with sys_generic.c/select() v1.35 and and with the patch back to v1.33+getmicrotime() and with your new patch. What is netscape doing that broke with v1.35? I was away from a computer for the last day and a half. Sorry if the orginal patch I posted caused you any trouble. It was just demonstrate that the netscape slow down was in select(), not a proper solution to the problem. I guess I should have added a disclaimer. dave adkins To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
