Previous bandwidth optimization breaks bwmg on old AMI #197

Closed FliesLikeABrick closed 6 years ago

FliesLikeABrick commented 6 years ago

My previous patch in PR #195 to fix issue #194 was not compatible with the stock/old BWMG AMIs. A patch is coming to fix this.

The issue is that 'fgrep' on the older Ubuntu AMIs does not support the -F option. However, using 'grep -F' is functionally equivalent because -F implies fixed strings, which should cause 'grep' to behave like fgrep CPU-wise.
