One issue I forgot earlier and Kirill pointed out is that the reallocation would require vmalloc because memory will be too fragmented to get a big piece of physical memory. So it would add TLB pressure. Can't think of a good way around that. You might have been right with being sceptical. -Andi - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
