Looks like a code generation issue. P4's will do that sometimes when you change the alignment of particular functions/structures. The graphics driver probably has nothing to do with it since the worst regressions don't involve graphics. Mark. On Tue, 8 Jul 2003, Egbert

Thank you. You pointed me back to documentation. QNX 4.x does not page to disk. A philosophical question for a RTOS. The only available memory is RAM. That´s why I care about everything. But it offers two main process image layouts. One that ´sandwiches´ the stack between the BSS and the heap, so t

I'd ask this on devel, but I'm certain I won't get an answer (at least not by anyone but you guys): Who would be an Xaw expert? Bugzilla #482 describes a situation (rather unlikely one) where Xaw causes a segfault. I've tracked it down however I'm not sure what would be the best solution. Egbert

This is a matter that maybe should also be discussed on 'forum'. I don't know how to initiate a joint discussion on both lists. There is a comment on Roland Mainz's changes to make BIGREQUEST size tunable. Further comments are welcome. Egbert. === comment by Juliusz Chroboczek ==
