I've used a similar data structure for a special-purpose allocator before, and it had extremely low allocation time overhead--- basically a few memory references for every level of the tree in the common case. Unless for some strange reason it pessimizes processes with a small number of file descriptors significantly, it would be really great to have this in the tree! _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
