First, sorry for the broken patch I've added. HJ's malloc patch was buggy and I haven't tested it before I added it. It should be back to normal now. Then, to end the working week I walked into rth's office and complained about gcc limiting me to write good code. The result: an hour later we he had a patch which solved the problem. It is now in the egcs mainline. The problem to solve was the handling of tables with addresses of local labels. I introduced this in vfprintf.c. Ever since the data section was big because of the tables which had to be relocated and therefore couldn't be made read-only. Also, there were runtime relocations. This is now gone and the data section is slim again and startup time got better again. I hope I got the configure test and the conditionals right. But you'll certainly let me know. -- ---------------. drepper at gnu.org ,-. 1325 Chesapeake Terrace Ulrich Drepper \ ,-------------------' \ Sunnyvale, CA 94089 USA Cygnus Solutions `--' drepper at cygnus.com `------------------------
