The new sort uses much less + stack and is more than twice as fast in typical situations. + +3.2 Sun Jun 7 20:30:05 CEST 2009 - (libeio) pwrite emulation was even more flawed than intended and did not restore the file offset. + - add aio_readdirx, which can return inode and filetype and sort + the names in various ways. - unfortunately, utime, chmod, chown on an open file that has just been written can easily block, which caused aio_copy to block the process. no more!
