To George (Regarding Buffer17.pre)

ok, one major question/suggestion.

question part:
Is there any particular reason you included the buffer
output (./file) IN the patch?
it has parts like this in it:
+BUF: main:59 released 22915 bytes from main:58.
+BUF: get_magnitude: Given:17480 Returned:8.
+BUF: main:58 requested 17480 bytes, received 22915.
+BUF: in_cache: Cache hit.
+BUF: main:59 released 22915 bytes from main:58.
+BUF: get_magnitude: Given:21845 Returned:8.
+BUF: main:58 requested 21845 bytes, received 22915.
+BUF: in_cache: Cache hit.

suggestion part:
if not, could you please remove that part when you redo the patch?
that would explain why it's approx 746k.

matter of fact, approx 90% of that patch is just the buffer output.
it starts here and goes to the end of the patch

if possible, remove that. (respond in private email please).
