Subject: Re: Designated initializers, struct randomization and addressing?
Date: Tue, 3 Jan 2017 15:55:59 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAKRnqNLs_1zy1v5Ngk0fZ-VBXrh3i2ihqUMVUU1BYeEBd3zAEQ@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

As a tangential party, I am a bit curious: does the randomization
plugin result in a compact structure?  I ask because I know many/most
programmers don't bother with it and so doing so ought to make the
data more compact.
