I'm building 2.4.6 (yes, the final is out!) and ran across the option
under Networking Options for "Packet socket: mmapped IO". The
description sounds nice "If you say Y here, the Packet protocol driver
will use an IO mechanism that results in faster communication. If
unsure say NO".
OK...so if this is such a great thing, why would i say NO? I honestly
don't even understand what it does. Would there be any benefit to
activating this for a ppp dialup connection? Any risks?
I still haven't figured out why Netscape & Mozilla get sluggish under
2.4.x kenels, so i'm kinda grasping at straws for solutions.
