    linux-m68k-atari_defconfig$ bloat-o-meter vmlinux.old

Seriously?!? Or am I being misled by the tools?

    linux-m68k-atari_defconfig$ size vmlinux.old vmlinux.lockless_ringbuffer
       text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
    3559108 941716 177772 4678596 4763c4 vmlinux.old
    3563922 1152496 175276 4891694 4aa42e vmlinux.lockless_ringbuffer

Apparently not...

In personal conversations with technical people, I call myself a hacker. But
