Firewall / Network isolation inquiry
Good morning folks,
A good friend of mine has a network where every host has two paths to the file servers (two NICs & two networks for all hosts).
Normally speaking, one network will be used for regular application traffic - license servers, itunes library, collaboration tools - while the other will be used for infrastructure traffic - AFS cluster, SNMP, etc.
Currently, the application traffic is saturating both networks, resulting in poor AFP and NFS performance. Ideally, he'd like to firewall the traffic on the host - directing applications to use ports on 192.168.2, while allowing the higher bandwidth (mission critical) traffic to use 192.168.3 without being impacted by the collaboration stuff.
Using the two example networks above, can you recommend what he might need to change / implement in order to isolate services in this fashion?

So, I've been told and heard a million times that malloc and free are expensive calls to be avoided. So many times I avoid malloc by reusing already allocated memory blocks. Store them on free lists somewhere myself and don't call free when I know malloc will be called very shortly thereafter.
