In other words be constructive rather than destructive. First of all, the original statement to which I responded was vague. I merely responded in kind. Second, it appears that you didn't do your homework regarding bug reports, etc. FYI, the main problem is indiscriminant use of mlockall() in Linux audio, especially making it the default behavior. Many people are not affected by it because they aren't really doing much with their systems. Third, I've written Linux audio software myself, which I consider to be more constructive than many people here. Construction means making something, doesn't it? Fourth, labelling something as "destructive" or "not constructive" is counterproductive to further discussion, therefore counterproductive to that which you seem to be suggesting that I do. It defeats your own argument. Regards, Dave.
