I've updated 4931425 with your concerns. > Anyway, several of these have been sitting untouched since 2001 or 02 > so I doubt anything is going to happen with this anytime soon... :-( Unfortunately, a lot of these RFEs have been languishing because we'd really like to move IPMP under SMF and with that move comes an entirely new administrative model for setting tunables. I'd expect these RFEs to be addressed as part of doing that work. -- meem
