+    <mcsim> Why for big buffers in ext2fs used own allocator, that just
+      allocates many pages at once, instead of using malloc?
+    <mcsim> i.e. can I replace it with malloc, because it just complicates
+      things?
+    <braunr> mcsim: probably because of alignment
+    <braunr> what gets complicated by that ?
+    <mcsim> braunr: than valloc?
+    <mcsim> braunr: this allocator allows to allocate only buffer with size of
+      vm_page_size.
+    <mcsim> valloc just would be clearer.
+    <braunr> valloc ?
+    <braunr> valloc is obsolete
+    <mcsim> braunr: than memalign or posix_memalign?
+    <mcsim> memalign obsolete too... would posix_memalign be eligible?
+    <braunr> mcsim: why memalign instead of the custom allocator ?
+    <mcsim> because, I think, it is clearer. Also, since I need to allocate any
+      amount of pages, not just one, I have to edit custom allocator. Although
+      it is not hard, but using ready stuff seems more sane for me.
+    <mcsim> braunr: ^
+    <braunr> right, but make sure posix_memalign doesn't create too much
+      overhead
+    <mcsim> braunr: what kind of overhead?
+    <braunr> fragmentation
+    <braunr> i assume the glibc implementation is careful about that, but still

+    <infinity0> does hurd have equivalent of mount --bind yet?
+    <kilobug> infinity0: unionfs with just one back-end ?
+    <infinity0> ah cool i'll try thaty
+    <kilobug> there may be something better, but that's the one I know about ;)
+    <braunr> infinity0: firmlinks
+    <infinity0> ah thanks i'll look that up
