Please test this especially if you're using a very old glibc or a non-Linux Unix. Also pay attention for any performance differences. I don't think any will be noticable unless you're doing very heavy IO and I expect it will only improve things. If in the past you've been forced to use --disable-aio, please try again without --disable-aio and let me know if it now works. Regards, Anthony Liguori
