Following recent discussions on the -arch mailing list, involving dillon
and mckusick, this change parallels the one made over a decade ago when
the default was bumped up from 4096/512.
This should provide significant performance improvements for most
folks, less significant performance losses for a few folks and
wasted space lost to large fragments for many folks.
For discussion, please see the following thread in the -arch archive:
Subject: Using a larger block size on large filesystems
The discussion ceases to be relevant when the issue of partitioning
schemes is raised.
- Change the 'fopen' keyword to accept a mode parameter. Note that this
will break existing 4th scripts that use fopen. Thus, the loader
version has been bumped and loader.4th has been changed to check for a
sufficient version on i386 and alpha. Be sure that you either do a full
world build or install or full build and install of sys/boot after this
since loader.old won't work with the new 4th files and vice versa.

scripts. Now, this evolution continues, and /etc/security has been
broken into periodic(8) scripts to make local customization easier and
more maintainable.

some situations where turning it off may be advantageous, including
situations where there are network outages and it's desirable to
have TCP sessions last beyond the outage.

in some environments, this may result in the early termination of
legitimate TCP sessions during temporary network outages. However,
maintain a strong recommendation that this be used when many network
clients are dialup.

libraries a little by not passing all of ${CFLAGS} to lint. Pass
only options matching -[DIU]*. The important -nostdinc option can't
be passed like I first thought because lint misinterprets as
"-n -o stdinc". The unimportant -B* option can't be passed because
lint doesn't support it. Otherwise, we pass the same options as
to mkdep, exept for a bug in the latter: -U* is not passed. All
this depends on option args not being separated from option flags
by a space.
The definition of character class digit requires that only ten characters
-the ones defining digits- can be specified; alternate digits (for
example, Hindi or Kanji) cannot be specified here. However, the encoding
may vary if an implementation supports more than one encoding.
The definition of character class xdigit requires that the characters
included in character class digit are included here also and allows for
different symbols for the hexadecimal digits 10 through 15.
