Well it gets us back to the issue why we removed the lock. As Robin said before: If its global then we can have a huge number of tasks contending for the lock on startup of a process with a large number of ranks. The reason to go to mmap_sem was that it was placed in the mm_struct and so we would just have a couple of contentions per mm_struct. I'll be looking for some other way to do this. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
