[opensuse-gnome] GHashTable speedup patch
I'm proposing that we ship openSUSE 11.0 with the GHashTable optimization patch [1] applied to our GLib. I've been running it for a while, and various people have tested it, with no problem so far. The main benefits are reduced memory fragmentation, some memory savings, better locality and a slight speedup in some apps. This is particularly noticeable in Evolution. What do you guys think? I can submit it to factory if you agree.

Looks cool. If it's well-tested (and it seems to be), I'm +1 for this. Vincent -- Les gens heureux ne sont pas pressés. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help@opensuse.org

I personally would like to see it get taken upstream (2.17.x is fine) before we ship it. -JP -- JP Rosevear <jpr@novell.com> Novell, Inc. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help@opensuse.org

I understand your concern, and I've poked the upstream bug, but I doubt it'll happen before the openSUSE 11.0 release. -- Hans Petter -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help@opensuse.org
