Deadline so far in limited testing doesn't seem to cause lockups as CFQ does and it seems to more realistically reflect the workload in the form of lower MB/s during such phases. Thanks for the tip.

It's bad development style, but it's also bad journalism to say the blueprints are out, now VMware is at risk. VMware is so widely used in critical situations that it's more than likely that many skilled infosec devs have tri

I don't understand your argument. An upstream project I use put a C++11 header in their public API's header. Now, I also have to build in C++11 language mode. If you're saying it's not the language standard's fault

Hadn't thought about that. Reminds me that I don't use Facebook or WhatsApp or LinkedIn.

Yes, and given their cultural background and looks they mixed in more quickly than other branches. Anytime I discuss this, I'm amazed by the way Britain has integrated their African population and to some extent Indian and Pakistani as

Because it's a C++11 header that doesn't exist in C++98. And I cannot compile that version without switching to C++11 mode. Edit: there appears to be some confusion here. I don't include the C++11 header myself. I include a p

You're probably right that it was mentioned on Jane Street's blog that flambda will enable such optimizations. I recall one of the ocamlc devs saying that real dead code elimination is planned but not available yet.

With all the data being collected, has anyone been able to use it to defend themselves based on location and time recorded? I tend to think that if we're recording all of it, it ought to be immutable and sealed so that one can at least

For the most part that's true but any tiny difference is used against a group if it fits in some other group's argument. It's funny how Asian, Hispanic and African descendant people in the US are singled out while all the Iri

As long as your use cases are covered sufficiently and you're fine with cloud'ing your environment completely, I guess this can work. But I much prefer being self-reliant and not at the whim of a company for things like my computi

It says 5 hours ago right now, not sure if there's a glitch.

Not that I'm aware of. Edit: flambda has been released in 4.03 and I'm using it but utop is 17MB, so I doubt proper dead code elimination is part of flambda.

I recently had to switch a project to -std=c++11 because a header I include now uses C++11 files. This change alone made compilation at least twice if not three times as slow. The new safety and convenience features are nice but compile tim

If VMware's security relies on it being closed source, then all bets are off. This is bad journalism.

I miss dead code elimination the most, especially when building code that uses Core.

Without details (breaking/following license rules) this looks scary and unrealistic if you consider that they want many Axolotl implementations out there. Proteus being written in Rust could make it the prime implementation if it were

Does this mean Wire won the argument? To resolve the dispute amicably, we agreed to dismiss our claims in exchange for a release of the claims Moxie had made against us. I cannot make absolute sense of this. Was the result

Linus manages the kernel and should decide to include it as BFQ is just another option in a pluggable subsytem. BFQ is arguably more important than many things because it fixes bad performance and unresponsive behavior. I hope it's not

CFQ as it's the default since 2006. I'll try deadline on USB storage.

Impossible to understand why BFQ isn't available as an option, when there are competing options for many things in the upstream kernel already.

I don't know, but I remember reading from the involved Sun people that this wasn't the plan. Bonwick and Cantrill I believe. In the end what matters is the result more than your intention, when it comes to legalese. Sun could have

As I wrote above, the device is taking long to finish the flush operation, and that's nothing special, but making the machine not react to input and actually block everything else like, say, the network stack and thereby interrupt down

Xorg becomes totally unresponsive and I cannot switch to a VT, so I assume it's a global lock somewhere.

I wish they would finally find a solution that actually fixes USB storage sync lockups. Whatever USB storage you use and whether USB2 or USB3, it's very easy to lock up a machine when data is flushed and is slow to do so. Given all the
