Hi, when you run your Perl scripts what 'vmstat 1' shows ? As well what exactly are those perl scripts, are you monitoring your site using them or ?
Couple of other questions: - are you using ZFS ? - what disks are you using on T2000 ? - the problem occurs only when you start your monitoring Perl scripts ? - what 'prstat -a' returns ? - how many processes are you running on this box vs number of CPU ? you might try to experiment with DTraceToolkit, look for CPU category and runocc.d (Run queue occupancy) cheers, Stefan This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ perf-discuss mailing list perf-discuss@opensolaris.org
