One, the other or even Both, depending on your kernel.


Yes, I've seen both. What is the best workaround for this problem?
Should I install the varnish from SVN trunk?

sendfile changes

2007-05-13 Thread Andreas Røsdal

Hello,
I have a question about a recent change done in SVN trunk:
http://varnish.projects.linpro.no/changeset/1417

"Make the sendfile threshold inifinity for now, we have evidence of
sendfile not doing it's job in a number of operating system (-versions ?)"

What does "not doing it's job" mean here? Sending corrupt or incomplete 
data?
