A big -1 from me as well on that wish-list entry. Any "adjustment" that requires a kernel recompile is just a bug, and should be fixed. That might have been an acceptable answer 25 years ago, but it's not now, and if any part of OpenSolaris really needs the "-funroll-loops" sort of manual hackery, then we're in deep trouble. -- James Carlson, Solaris Networking <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sun Microsystems / 35 Network Drive 71.232W Vox +1 781 442 2084 MS UBUR02-212 / Burlington MA 01803-2757 42.496N Fax +1 781 442 1677 _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
