Thanks Kris! I know that ffmpeg was 50-200% faster (depending on the
input/output) with libthr in RELENG_6_2, so I thought building without
LIBKSE might help. But I guess libthr is the default, so the above
doesn't much matter?

Ok, thanks. I don't have a malloc.conf, so I'm all set there.

I'll stick to the other thread then regarding ULE vs. 4BSD performance
in RELENG_7 in my particular case. It must not be a debugging option
I'm missing that's causing 4BSD to perform faster than ULE for ffmpeg
it seems.

Thanks!
Josh
