Are there any downsides to using HPET? If not, I suggest making it the default, in order to reduce complexity for the user. Something like: - try to use HPET (unless -no-rtc selected) - try to use RTC (unless -no-rtc selected) - fallback to normal unix facilities -- error compiling committee.c: too many arguments to function ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
