Hi all, I am currently planning home page update. This will take 1-2 days. After this, I will carefully look at these tests and get a roadmap ready for future development :) One immediate thing to consider is improper handling of "real" low memory conditions. It is surely more involving than: if (!ret) goto out; kind of 'error handling' as is done currently. These tests will surely reveal many more issues. Thanks Anderson for these tests! :-) Cheers, Nitin Anderson Briglia wrote: > Hi all, > > I did some tests using the latest ccache code posted by Nitin Gupta.
