:The p_args.patch patch implements a cache of the commandline arguments
:in the process structure and makes ps(1) pick it up from there with
:sysctl rather than by groping around in the target process memory.

:        Speeds up ps(1).

    considering how much of a security hole it is.  I've never liked the
    'e' option.
