Are you sure this is really better? I mean, seriously? Dynamic allocation causes heap fragmentation, and may result in more memory being wasted than the static allocation. The static allocation *should* only allocate physical memory when the queue really grows that large; until then, the kernel maps a single zero page. (If that's not what's happening currently, it is easy to optimize.) > Should I be basing patches on v0.17.x or master? master. v0.17.x is only for bug fixes, the branch is frozen. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by Windows: Build for Windows Store. http://p.sf.net/sfu/windows-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Musicpd-dev-team mailing list Musicpd-dev-team@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/musicpd-dev-team
