--- Comment #7 from jyri at virkki.com ---
Will the port build pass in any prefix other than /usr/local in practice?

I can make it take a var (e.g. LIB_PREFIX) and if it set use it as-is, or if
not set, default it to /usr/local

OTOH, while I'm all for making it flexible I also don't want to add clutter
that nobody will use. So if the port build system will ultimately just always
pass in /usr/local as the prefix, might as well leave it as is. But if this can
vary in FreeBSD installations, then it's worth making it configurable.


I haven't done any meaningful testing between -O2 vs. -O3 so can't really say.
Perhaps -O2 is fine. I also have not done any performance testing on FreeBSD.
But if you run into any performance weirdness on FreeBSD please file a bug,
I'll check it out. I primarily test on Linux (w/gcc) and secondarily on Solaris
(w/Sun cc).


dupd attitude is that RAM is there to be used, so it doesn't limit memory usage
unless you ask (--buflimit). If you want, send me output of 'dupd scan -v' and
I'll play around with a similar file set in case there is any unwarranted
inefficiency there.
