1. We always keep one 16th of the vnodes on the freelist, so that the namecache doesn't get trashed. It used to be that it wasn't a problem, but the only vnodes getting released these days are directories and things which Clean up and improve the namecache. 1. We always keep one 16th of the vnodes on the freelist, so that the namecache doesn't get trashed. It used to be that it wasn't a problem, but the only vnodes getting released these days are directories and things which gets forced out of the VM/cache. The latter is not numerous enough to keep the pool of vnodes needed for the namecache sufficiently big. 2. Purge invalid entries in the namecache as soon as we notice them. This avoids a stale entry pushing out a valid entry on the LRU list. 3. Speed up the lookup in the namecache by avoid a special case branch. 4. Make the cache purge routines do the thing they're supposed to, and in a decently efficient manner. 5. Make the size of the namecache follow the number of vnodes, so that we can always point to all the vnodes we have in core. 6. Readability has gone way up. 7. Added a "options NCH_STATISTICS" feature that will gather more detailed statistics on the performance of the namecache. Reviewed by: davidg |

If any errors occur during this installation, you can see them by toggling over to the alternate screen - type ALT-F2 to switch over, ALT-F1 to switch back to the install screen. The debugging output on the second screen may be very valuable to us in understanding your bug report, so please be sure to take note of it when reporting any failures in the installation! Thanks!
