Andrew, don't you think you should write a linux manpage and/or other
documentation when you add system calls like fadvise to linux? Also,
Andrew, your measurements would be a lot more understandable if you did
not use programs written by you and not present in any linux distro (do
I understand that correctly?) without defining what they do. Yes? ;-)
