No -- under high lock contention it performs very very poorly. We are looking at an alternat patch to break deadlocks (should they occur): https://bugzilla.andrew.cmu.edu/show_bug.cgi?id=1177 But no one has confirmed that the patch works. -Rob -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Rob Siemborski * Andrew Systems Group * Cyert Hall 207 * 412-268-7456 Research Systems Programmer * /usr/contributed Gatekeeper
