However, jenkin's does many bytes at a time. It turns out to not be the case at all. There is too much work involved in the main loop just maintaining the 3-word + curbyte state. It needs to be optimized a bit. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/ | ||||||||||||
