Wow! That. Is. It. Toggling malloc debugging option J makes the "slow" machines "fast" and vice versa. > > Athlon 64 X2 5200+ 2.6 GHz, FreeBSD 8.0-CURRENT amd64 ~60 min 19 seconds. I guess that falls under the "obvious" configuration differences to check, but since it usually doesn't cause a significant slowdown I completely forgot about it. Embarrassing. But still. Two orders of magnitude? That is a pathological case. -- Christian "naddy" Weisgerber na...@mips.inka.de _______________________________________________ freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-hackers-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
