How many of you do *not* have a working mmap? The reason that I ask, is if I presume a working mmap efficiences can be substantially increased, and I don't have to code for both cases, which is tedious. Below is what my understanding is vis a number of OS's. If you have further information, please tell me. Linux: mmap in kernels 1.3+ BSD: mmap in 4.3+ Sunos: mmap in 4.1+ Solaris: mmap in all revisions OSF/1: mmap in all revisions Ultrix: ? Aix: ? Irix: ? -- "Of all tyrannies a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies, The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for own good will torment us without end, for they do so with the approval of their own conscience." - C.S.
