[Unionfs] Does Unionfs support sendfile on latest relaease of 2.5

[Arun Sharma]

Hello All

I have a query related to latest release of unionfs 2.5.1. Does these
release support sendfile option ?

At present i use Centos52 ( Kernel - 2.6.18-92.el5xen ) with unionfs 1.4. In
this unionfs 1.4 release , it does not support Sendfile , so i have to do
EnableSendfile Off option in apache http server.

Since i saw somewhere that having EnableSendfile option Off on apache will
degrade the performance of apache , i want to upgrade my unionfs and willing
to understand its support for sendfile.

Please guide me , should i upgrade or not.

Even in unionfs1.4 it was easy to install and use unionfs but to use 2.5
there is only .diff.gz patch file. I really don't know how to make use of
it.

Any help or info will be helpfull.

Arun
