There was once a theory that memcpy would use vm_copy for large page-aligned copies. There is in fact code for this in libc, but I think it doesn't get used because it's only the generic code and there are optimized x86 versions that don't do any page-alignment checks. Certainly if memcpy gets inlined it doesn't happen. I think we should certainly use vm_copy for whole-page copies in pager_memcpy because of the badly suboptimal behavior you've described. _______________________________________________ Bug-hurd mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-hurd
