Re: [patch] Avoid the use of mmap as buffer for stdio streams


What code is _really_ affected by this? We are using mmap for a number of reasons, one of which is that it reduces fragmentation on the heap. It works well and so far I don't see any reason to change this. I've not seen programs which constantly and with high frequency fclose() files.
