What is the iowait? etc.
The machine almost never has iowait. Spikes in user CPU match the load average spikes (this is true with both Passenger and mongrel). The machine is doing nothing but Puppet file serving. Its 12G of RAM is never all used--it usually has about 8G completely free. Buffer cache is uses around 3G. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
