I suppose I have to resend one patch, as I forgot to CC the kernel list, and the patch was not really conforming to the rules specified above, either. > It's also generally best to simply use git to create patches (e.g. via > git-format-patch).

It boots quite quickly on my Fedora 9, but the boot log shows significantly less rules than yours. If you really have that much rules, I guess your hash chains will have to be much longer too... The 171021 vs 1979772 is strange, ratio being approx. 1:11. Here is what I have: EXT3-fs: mounted filesystem with ordered data mode. type=1404 audit(1216911601.748:2): enforcing=1 old_enforcing=0 auid=4294967295 ses=4294967295 SELinux: 8192 avtab hash slots, 171021 rules.
