SubjectRe: [patch] hashtable sizes for icache and dcache
   Date: Thu, 23 Sep 1999 21:28:34 +0200 (MET DST)
From: Gerard Roudier <groudier@club-internet.fr>

Checking that 2.3.x works reasonnably with low memory configuration is
indeed fine. But developping with so few memory looks like masochism
exacerbation. Are these core developpers also flogged, each time they
provide a bug? ;-)

To sort of answer your question, one of the low memory machines in
question is what stress tests our routing/ipv6 code (it is the router
for an entire university department).

You will note, that there are no missing checks for NULL returns from
kmalloc in the routing code as a byproduct of this :-)
