Like I said, it's GOOD to have you back, brah.....

Perhaps we need some code help, to join our team. Sinced MM has deep
experience with shrot comings and other like what works form them, do
we have a quorum?

YES, methinks....

Perhaps someone familiar with the ebuild, could ask the ebuild creator to
update to the latest version? Perhaps a gentoo dev will put it
into a github for closer inspection? Perhaps a lead coder will emerge
to help us along the way?


Me, the real-time (low latency) needs of all things voice and video 
on a gentoo clusters make these sorts of codes very useful to test
gentoo cluster configurations and flesh out kernel optimization issues.
Since they support arm64v8 this is actually a very enticing venture to
put this on arm64 too and see just how many threads and just how fast it
will run.

Count me in, too.
