Hi.

In src/UPDATING in 8.0 the following is still mentioned:
NOTE TO PEOPLE WHO THINK THAT FreeBSD 8.x IS SLOW:
         FreeBSD 8.x has many debugging features turned on, in
         both the kernel and userland.  These features attempt to detect
         incorrect use of system primitives, and encourage loud failure

But looking at the GENERIC kernel and the malloc options the debug option=
s =20
are already disabled before RC1.
I hope this helps somebody to not to forget to remove these.

Ronald.
