I've submitted a patch to Linus that should make the last of these name changes. Unix Domain Sockets still aren't set to Y by default on all platforms. If it isn't right in the next kernel release, I'll resubmit the patch that does that. I was wondering if anyone has any thoughts about the speed of domain sockets? I keep thinking that this is a major slow down for all local X Windows software. Some tests show that named pipes are about 25% faster than domain sockets (using both small and large reads and writes). I understand that named pipes != domain sockets, but it seems like they should be a bit closer in performance. Any thoughts?
Bye, Kirk
