Consider this a VM bug, mmap() really should be more efficient.
read() is always going to be faster until mmap() can use large page mappings for the user. This is why mmap() is slower.
Even if the whole thing is cached in memory, read() will always be faster. - 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/
