At the time I typed that, you had replaced your Linux kernel only 4 days prior to asking for help here with your performance issue: Linux rv1 2.6.32-5-amd64 #1 SMP Fri Oct 15 00:56:30 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux Your current kernel was installed on Oct 15 00:56:30. This was the reason for my questions. Given that it looks like the default kernel rev for Squeeze, I assumed you had not simply replaced the kernel recently, but had in fact just installed/upgraded to Squeeze. *The timing of your performance problems coincides with the date of this kernel replacement* > This system has been running on Lenny for over 8 months now. > On Sept 16th I upgraded it to Squeeze. > And things were fine untill 2-3 days. > >> If you just performed a dist upgrade 4 days ago, that is _extremely_ >> relevant information, and you should have shared that in your original post. > > After the upgrade from lenny to squeeze it was working fine for almost > a month so i did not consider it relevant :-( This is a critical point. If you did not replace your kernel manually, or automatically via a cron job etc, on Oct 15, then who did, and why? To be sure I'm not all wet here, check the date stamp on your current vmlinuz- file. It should match the date/time of the uname -a output. Did someone replace your kernel without your knowledge? If so, you've found your problem. > The dmesg > > http://pastie.org/1235266 > > $vmstat 5 output > > http://pastie.org/1235273 -- Stan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
