Really? Easier than keeping only two 256-byte arrays for exp() and log() and use these at runtime to populate the (dynamically allocated) 64K GF multiplication table? That seems to be really simple and would still shave off 64K of kernel memory for raid5-only users. Andre -- The only person who always got his work done by Friday was Robinson Crusoe
