Jakub's patch includes a cache as well but more importantly he also has linker patches to generate appropriately optimized binaries. It is necessary to combine and sort the relocation sections. Only then can the cache be really effective. So, instead of dealing with this patch only to later rework it I'm waiting for the linker changes to materialize and then add an appropriate patch. Jakub AFAIK has one but he's on vacation this week. -- ---------------. ,-. 1325 Chesapeake Terrace Ulrich Drepper \ ,-------------------' \ Sunnyvale, CA 94089 USA Red Hat `--' drepper at redhat.com `------------------------
