Speaking of which: how is mmap working with other people? I am testing
a secondary server with it and it gets the "file exists symlinking" error
which is listed as mmap failure on the active file. 2.0.2 kernel, I
havn't had time to compile the "latest and greatest" this week.
Also, on a platform that does mmap with INN, what's the performance
difference between mmap and read in the newsserver?
