I'll stick this on my "to do" list, but it's much less critical in my applications than it was with 10.x and 11.x, both of which suffered from it much more-severely to the point that I was getting "stalls" that in some cases went on for 10 or more seconds due to things like your shell being evicted to swap to make room for arc, which is flat-out nuts.=C2=A0= That, at least, doesn't appear to be a problem with 12. --=20 Karl Denninger karl@denninger.net <mailto:karl@denninger.net> /The Market Ticker/ /[S/MIME encrypted email preferred]/ --------------ms000505030608030001090908 Content-Type:
