After the successful upgrade of the first machine, I have some trouble with the second. Chances are that the trouble is my fault, but I could still appreciate a clue:
Apache reacts very slow. Despite of a load <0.5, lynx 127.0.0.1 (as root) takes more than 5-10 seconds until the static -rwxr-x--- 1 root www 2236 Dec 12 2006 /var/www/htdocs/index.html props up. Any other task on the system is done instantaneous. >From other machines, on the same network, it takes a similar time to see that page. But it is not a data-rate problem, because after the loooong wait, the data itself comes down to the clients at close to 100Mb/sec. Downloading a file of 60M, on the same subnet, takes about 20 seconds to connect to the IP-address/subdir and 7 seconds for the transfer. pf is disabled, /etc/hosts is ::1 localhost.uniten.edu.my localhost 127.0.0.1 localhost.uniten.edu.my localhost ::1 metalab.uniten.edu.my metalab 172.16.0.2 metalab.uniten.edu.my metalab Apache has been restarted, it stops and restarts 'graceful' within a second or two top says Memory: Real: 76M/423M act/tot Free: 1562M Swap: 0K/2151M used/tot I am stumped, Uwe
