- Speaking of performance improvements:
-
- for tools like du or find, the current implementation with calls of
- Dreaddir and Fxattr for every file is slow withoung having to be slow.
- I think there should be a new system call that gets the dir entry
- AND the xattr structure. The library would deal with the details of the OS
- interface, so there wouldn't be a lot of changes in the sources of
- applications...
