No. What I understand from the above ticket, is that the problem is in the "libsandbox". Quote: "Also noticable on openvz guests, where getcwd test takes about minute and without sandbox its below 3s." Quote: "The underlying problem appears to be that libsandbox's mkdir() scales very poorly." Quote: "The slowness comes from glibc own getcwd calls. But this isn't a problem when running outside sandbox ..." etc. Bruno
