Message-ID: <XFMail.020206010234.jhb@FreeBSD.org> : WITNESS can really hurt. Quite possibly I should turn it off in GENERIC now (I : wouldn't mind if someone else did that.) Before major locking changes people : should still use it to look for bugs, but it isn't very efficient I'm afraid. :( Best regards, Mike Barcroft To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe cvs-all" in the body of the message
