I had that problem too. Dictionary AVL tree builder, running
on 2Gb of ascii text for 9 days, no sign of finishing.
Copied src (unchanged save for includes) to FreeBSD
running on the same box, compiled it and kicked it off.
Twelve minutes later I had my result. Double checked it with
a smaller dataset. No echo 'pri xx' > /proc/yy/ctl or anything
of that kind.
Without wishing to be offensive, does anyone know why
Plan 9 appears to be so slow?
I love the OS, but it doesn't do my work on time. =)
