On normal 2.4.18 (UP 933mhz p3) it runs in about .2s However, within a chrooted environment I'm looking at 1s. Anyone knows why this runs significantly slower within a chroot? thanks, shaya - 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/
