1 Even though the kernel help for PAX_PAGEEXEC indicates "variable but
2 usually low performance impact", my experience on 32-bit platforms has
3 been that it was an immense slowdown (dual P-IV 3.2GHz). I don't know
4 whether the impact was on disk i/o or on malloc, but programs took
5 _forever_ to start, then ran very quickly once they were in memory.
