Re: [bug #33138] .PARLLELSYNC enhancement with patch

[Paul Smith]

I'm fully prepared to accept the blame for not doing the best job
getting buy-in etc. on this effort.  Can we leave the discussion on the
process behind?  I'd prefer that, unless there are real constructive
comments on how to do better next time rather than rehashing what was
done wrong.  I think we have discussed that enough, and I'd prefer to
avoid going further along that road.

Thanks.

Oh right.  My head cold is keeping me foggy.  What was the reason to
change to SEEK_END, again?

I'm not so sure fstat() is that cheap.  struct stat contains a lot of
information.  Although I guess since we are only ever talking about temp
files, not NFS files or something, it's probably not too bad.
