Very high load. Could it be the raid-controller? I had a db-server with horibble performance due to a cheap raid-controller. Moving to a ciss-controller (DL380 G5) solved all my issues. My load decreased 100 fold. -- regards Claus When lenity and cruelty play for a kingdom, the gentlest gamester is the soonest winner.
