Folks, I Noticed the following line on start-up in 7.7 creating runtime link editor directory cache ?
I was wondering will the runtime link editor directory cache result in additional writes to the filesystem and would it be useful to memory mount the filesystem to reduce writes to the filesystem (to increase the resilience of OpenBSD based routers / firewalls in the field ? ) we currently memory mount the following mount points to reduce flash wear and probability of a write to the ssd during a power interruption ##extract of my /etc/fstab below swap /tmp mfs rw,nosuid,noexec,nodev,-s=262144 0 0 swap /var/log mfs rw,nosuid,noexec,nodev,-s=524288,-P=/persist-fs/var/log 0 0 swap /var/run mfs rw,nosuid,noexec,nodev,-s=262144,-P=/persist-fs/var/run 0 0 swap /dev mfs rw,nosuid,noexec,-P=/persist-fs/dev,-i=2048,-s=32768 0 0 # Any Comments criticisms insights welcome -- Kindest regards, Tom Smyth.
