--- Comment #7 from Garance A Drosehn <[email protected]> --- (In reply to Conrad Meyer from comment #4) Just how much overhead is there in IPC? It's easy to see that a local cache will beat the caching done by a separate nscd process, but why would using nscd be so much slower than doing a totally non-cached look up of the user and group names each time? Doesn't that seem a little odd? And the local-to-stat caching: won't that only help if many commands are 'stat'-ed in a single command, as opposed to doing many stat-commands with one file per command? Does 'ls' do local caching? If there is a big benefit in doing local-caching in 'stat', should we also do it with 'ls'? I know I do a lot more 'ls -l's than I do 'stat'-commands of any kind. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-bugs To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
