This is wrong. Interrupt moderation has been there for quite a while, DMA is chained and predictive.
Just like the extra chopping up of the data you want to send into more packets, it's things you have to do a few extra times. That takes time. There is no way around this. What Leo wrote is in no way wrong.
ACL checks I can agree on, but if you are optimizing the system, what do you need ACL?s for anyway because you can make the applications secure in the first place?
You're trolling, right? -- Niels. -- Blessed are the Watchmakers, for they shall inherit the earth.
