Please excuse a "not necessarily linux" question, but who wants to share
opinions/experience on the virtues of mmap ing a file as opposed to opening it
? I'm about to start work on a project where the local custom is to mmap input
files and I'm not so sure that's a good idea (the files and 100s of meg).  Are
page faults really that much faster than reads ?

TIA

TomR
