What I am trying to decide is whether there any point in making the jump
from a very stable RELENG_5 system to RELENG_6. AIUI the ULE scheduler
and it's associated options optimize the use of multiple CPUs and by
staying with 4BSD I'm not getting the best performance from my system.
I'm not using ULE either - but I got a 15 percent speedup out of our SMP
systems when moving from RELENG_5 to 6.0-RELEASE. Definitely worth doing
in my opinion and am now upgrading all the production systems to 6.0
Can anyone offer any advice on this please?
Yes, do it. Its a definite improvement.
OK, I've done it, and am pleased with the result :)
Thanks to everyone for the info about the current state of ULE. I'm
sticking with 4BSD as the box is rock solid with that.
Regards,
Mark
