There was a commit to the ULE code in RELENG_7 approximately 6 hours ago by Jeff, indicating some speed improvements in ULE when there's heavy IRQ activity, and adjustments in the timeslicing code for threads which don't utilise timesharing: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/sys/kern/sched_ule.c Can you update your src-all tree to pull this in, rebuild the kernel, and tell us if it behaves better for you? -- | Jeremy Chadwick jdc at parodius.com | | Parodius Networking http://www.parodius.com/ | | UNIX Systems Administrator Mountain View, CA, USA | | Making life hard for others since 1977.
