The comparison does not seem to be apples to apples. The perf gain seems to come from bundling the fork and exec call allowing the kernel to do vfork like optimizations. I think a fair comparison would be against a new sys call that does fo

This seems to be the number of Americans with a criminal record and not a criminal conviction (someone who was found to be innocent would also be included in this number). I can't seem to find the number of Americans with a conviction

Thank you for this comment, it made my day. I usually see posts wanting skilled immigrants out. The last few months have been especially bad due to the various policies that have been adopted.

I'm currently a CS student at a top tier university, and I can assure you that the tide is changing, half the class is female, and a most new research (at least undergraduate) has quite a good balance in terms of representation. Give i
