Dude, it's like two header files full of macros, so it's mostly a build system thing....

Well, C is used for portability, but really C is the assembler, and it'll be 90% macros....

How well does this improve swap thrashing on larger memory sizes? I have a workstations with 64-256GiB of memory, and sometimes even these run out.

mRNA vaccines and adenovirus vectored vaccines are gene therapies, they are described as such by their inventors. AFAIK all current emergency use authorized...
