Random guess: kernel (which anybody halfway serious about performance does anyway), libc, XFree86, openssl, maybe a few other highly CPU-intensive things. Anything that hits memory, disk, or other I/O heavily isn't worth it. Of course, I haven't done any benchmarks either. :) -- Colin Watson [[EMAIL PROTECTED]] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
