Again, I wish that I could be more helpful. You might be able to download a log of the IRC conversations and grep for answers.

You'll probably get a better answer soon. :) October 24, 2020 8:09 PM, "Andrew Eggenberger" <andrew.eggenber...@gmail.com (mailto:andrew.eggenber...@gmail.com?to=%22Andrew%20Eggenberger%22%20<andrew.eggenber...@gmail.com>)> wrote: I didn't even know that the latest version of Emacs compiled on the Hurd...

A little underwhelming to be honest. I thought the speed-up would be more noticeable. I'm trying to track down the implementation of the function that actually sets the st_uid field. But it appears to be buried under several indirections and possibly a mig interface. I got lost trying to find it.
