Hi folks, I believe I have found a rather serious MMAP problem in -CURRENT. Diablo (the news system) is the test case; with MMAP enabled it will randomly write exactly one block (512 bytes) of zeros into the article spool files rather than the proper data - its almost like an update via MMAP isn't actually happening when it should, and is being thrown away. This shows up as a corrupted batch when you try to transmit to others. I'm working on trying to isolate this, and will have more when I know better what is going on. -- -- Karl Denninger (karl@MCS.Net)| MCSNet - Serving Chicagoland and Wisconsin http://www.mcs.net/ | T1's from $600 monthly / All Lines K56Flex/DOV | NEW!
