.... or not regession, that's the question.
2.6.16-rc2 works without problems.
With -rc3 a .swf that opens a ip connection back to the server takes ages to
load. strace shows that the player hangs for long times in select().

----------------------
fixed that, the player works again in normal speed.
The player is the newest from macromedia (7.0.61.0, gentoo ebuild), binary
only of course:( Reading the patch and the documentation of select() i think
the player is buggy... but works until 2.6.16-rc3
So what is your opinion? I think, macromedia should fix the player...
Thanks
