Does it seem right that ACPI alone is almost 9% of the LOC in this code base? At over 165K lines?

Mind, I honestly don't know anything about the details of ACPI.

But, seems like a lot to me.

I seems to have read somewhere that there are really only three ACPI implementations: Microsofts, Intels (used in Linux and FreeBSD, among others) and OpenBSDs. So I wonder if VMW might be a fourth, or if they are also using the Intel implementation.
