Subject: [PATCH] Fix mount hash table
Date: Thu, 7 Feb 2002 03:39:59 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20020207033959.A2468@averell> (raw)
On my 512MB machine with 6 mount points the mount hash table uses 64K.
This patch brings it to a more reasonable size by limiting it to one
page.
Patch against 2.5.4pre1. Please apply.
