Description Andrew Hamilton-Wright 2009-02-13 02:00:07 UTC
The description of the "recommended" use of cache and snapshots in dump(8) is somewhat confusing, as the reason for the recommendation is left unclear.

Fix: Doc update, patch attached.

Patch attached with submission follows:
How-To-Repeat: See docs for dump(8) option "C" -> cache size.
