Instead of making this an array, make it a structure with a read and write count. It still doesn't really fix the issue of someone running on a kernel with a ton of possible CPUs configured. But it does reduce the overhead by 50%. -- Jens Axboe -- dm-devel mailing list dm-devel@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/dm-devel
