Package | “mmap” Flag Description |
---|---|
media-libs/xine-lib | Use mmap() function while reading file from local disks. Using mmap() will use more virtual memory space, but leaves to the Kernel the task of caching the file's data. mmap() access should be faster, but might misbehave if the device where the file resides in is removed during playback. |
www-servers/lighttpd | Use mmap when sendfile is not available |
