# Line 2508 | Line 2508 | picture is XYZE.
2508   Made subtle changes to header i/o routines to preserve alignment in
2509   binary file formats to enable memory-mapping.  Implemented memory-mapped
2510   matrix loading in rmtxop for binary double files.
2511 +
2512 + Removed ambient value sorting, which was written when ambient caches
2513 + could overwhelm available memory.  This is rarely the case these days,
2514 + and the added code complexity and updating of cache values with LRU
2515 + counts dirties pages that would otherwise remain clean, so it was
2516 + often a loss even when VM was an issue.
