I was sure the last time I looked (about v2.5) it had some 0.1s in the
character positions, but can't find them now. Anyway, I've tried the
change now and it is a LOT faster!
Before:
djwhome:/usr/src/lynx/lynx2-7$ time /usr/bin/lynx -dump . > /dev/null
3.27user 8.32system 0:11.77elapsed 98%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 0maxresident)k
0inputs+0outputs (0major+0minor)pagefaults 0swaps
After:
djwhome:/usr/src/lynx/lynx2-7$ time ./lynx -dump . > /dev/null
1.88user 0.68system 0:02.57elapsed 99%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 0maxresident)k
0inputs+0outputs (0major+0minor)pagefaults 0swaps
djwhome:/usr/src/lynx/lynx2-7$
. is the top level Lynx source directory. Both runs are second runs, to
avoid unnecessary page-ins. The marginal improvement between an empty
directory and this directory is even more impressive, although the
repeatability of the timings isn't good enough for accurate figures.
