Hi, hackers!

It seems that reopening /dev/cuaaX devices after close() takes exactly
3 seconds on FreeBSD 4.10 (sorry, I've no 5.x systems available at the 
moment).

Here is output of attached program:
open() time: 155 us
open() time: 2995729 us
open() time: 2999811 us
open() time: 2999608 us
open() time: 2999711 us
open() time: 2999720 us
open() time: 2999713 us
open() time: 2999744 us
open() time: 2999673 us
open() time: 2999706 us

Is this 3 second delay necessary? Can I get rid of it?

                                Andrew.
#include <sys/time.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <fcntl.h>

int
main(void) {
        int             fd, i;
        long            us;
        struct timeval  tv1, tv2;

        for (i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
                gettimeofday(&tv1, NULL);
                fd = open("/dev/cuaa0", O_RDWR);
                gettimeofday(&tv2, NULL);
                us = (tv2.tv_sec - tv1.tv_sec) * 1000000 +
                     (tv2.tv_usec - tv1.tv_usec);
                printf("open() time: %d us\n", us);
                if (fd == -1) {
                        perror("open");
                        exit(1);
                }
                close(fd);
        }
}
