Hi, I want to run my PostgreSQL database server from memory. The reason is that on my new server, I have 24 GB of memory, and hardly any of it is used. I know I can run this command to make a ramdisk: mdmfs -s 1024m md2 /mnt And I could theoretically have PostgreSQL store its data there. But the problem with this is that if the serv...

Turns out I was wrong, as I end up with a UnknownHostException try { computerName = InetAddress.getLocalHost().getHostName(); if (computerName.i...

I'm trying to port some code from FreeBSD to OS X. The code is fairly low-level and it creates a number of special device files using make_dev() and controls functionality using functions like ioctl().

Ultimately, I need a Python fun...
