I am *not* a kernel developer... though I understand why it makes a lot of sense to have debugging enabled. Most of the time the real users will hit a bug... and then can give usefull bug reports to the kernel guys *if* debugging is enabled. On the other hand I understand (and agree) that we want to get every speedup that is possible on our beloved device :) IMO it makes a lot of sense to find out the single debug configs that add overhead and just remove those. > thanks for attention to this topic, gennady -- Klaus 'mrmoku' Kurzmann
