Hi, I installed 4.3-release on an O2 and noticed that it is quite slow compared to 4.1-stable. For example, it took more than 5 hours to build a kernel, that's about the same as my Vax ;-)
Right now I'm running a make build and it is dead slow. Load is around 0.10 and top shows that the machine is nearly 100% idle. It seems that something is delaying the system, but I can't tell what it is. Some kind of interrupt problem, perhaps? BTW: /usr/src is NFS-mounted, but that shouldn't be a problem, right? Any pointers are appreciated. Maurice [ using 302776 bytes of bsd ELF symbol table ] Copyright (c) 1982, 1986, 1989, 1991, 1993 The Regents of the University of California. All rights reserved.
