The problem with this approach is that it works very poorly with per cpu reference counting's batching of references, which is pretty much a requirement now that many core systems are the norm. Allocating the bare minimum is not the right thing to do today. That said, the default limits on the number of requests probably needs to be raised. -ben -- "Thought is the essence of where you are now." -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
