Re: I have a program I wish to submit for the base

I'm not merely experimenting with kqueue because I like the shiny bells and whistles. I want to know how fast a mirror will download the same file from different mirrors. ftp() is shitty for expediency. It does one of three things it fails fast, succeeds fast, or it could take FOREVERR!!! I

Re: I have a program I wish to submit for the base

I fixed the uname(1) call and replaced it with uname(3) I read the style man page. ran the program through indent. I ran it through sed because it reduces code complexity. Why re-engineer the wheel? I use C because I can use kqueue from a fresh install. You have to use unaudited packages to use

Can I accelerate my magnet HDD using a SSD in any way?? E.g. softraid patch/ARC, dedicated hardware e.g. Intel RCS25ZB040LX="Nytro MegaRAID", anything

This could be made in software with benefit, as a Softraid patch. So the frequently accessed stuff ends up cached on the SSD for faster read speed. ZFS on FreeBSD etc. does it in its "ARC"/"ARC2L" feature? There is some hardware solution, e.g. Intel made the

Below the conversion to uiomove() for ntfs. In the first three hunks the size passed to uiomove(i) already was of type size_t. I also converted the 'left' variable in ntfs_readattr() to size_t, because it tracks the remainder of 'rsize', which also is size_t. Index: ntfs/ntfs_subr.c

Ah, I now understand that this problem is mindbogglingly complex because of tons and tons of work needed to make it work, including the storage format on the SSD cache, and tools for "fsck":ing it etc etc. In a way that maybe answered my question, thanks! On 2016-01-31 19:00, Tinker wrote:
