I'm assuming you've read this recently then: http://www.kerneltrap.org/node-592.html Anticipatory Schedulers are all well and good, but I think (I might be corrected here) that most of the disk I/O work in FreeBSD has been around softupdates. However, when I read it, and looked at a description of the AS algo (not the source, I don't want to have any GPL infection around me), I have to admit, I did eye up /usr/src and my week's holiday the week after next, just as a bit of fun... Anybody else got plans on this? I need to have a proper look around the source tree, but I think this would be both self-contained (i.e. easy to back out if it breaks) and useful. Quite a small-ish project really as well. To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
