The numbers that you pointed out suggest that the effect here is quite large. I find it hard to believe that something isn't going wrong here. A single branch instruction really shouldn't be this onerous unless it's in a fast path, in which case it should probably be a compile-time option. What is the difference in image size between kernels with and without tracing? - Ben -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
