From: Hirokazu Takahashi <taka@valinux.co.jp> Date: Thu, 16 May 2002 16:15:48 +0900 (JST) We know streaming services and NFS use UDP protocol. This means IP defragmentation is processed heavily, as their packets are very large. We should allocate "incomplete detagram queue" using kmem_cache_alloc() instead of kmalloc(). Did you really measure a performance improvement due to your changes? Also, using kmem_find_general_cachep() will probably give you %90 of whatever gain your changes might obtain. - : send the line "unsubscribe linux-net" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
