Try stock FreeBSD first. If reproducable on the stock HEAD, can you point to the lines of ncl_getpages() where the time is spent ? Does reading of the problematic files, as opposed to mmaping it, also cause the behaviour ? E.g. try dd. There is really no time-unbounded loops in the ncl_getpages() itself. I could understand the situation if e.g. time is spent in getpbuf() or ncl_readrpc(), but not in ncl_getpages() directly. Also, as an experiment, you could see if HEAD after r308980 demonstrates any difference. ___ freebsd-current@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-current-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

This situation is handled by picosat internally and even for naive DPLL there is no significant influence of duplicate KNF clauses: once you've assumed all vars in some clause, you automatically resolve all duplicates. Is there any real improvement of SAT solver speed with this patch?

Exactly. This is why I've stated: it affects performance linearly. Referring to Wikipedia's pseudo-code of the algorithm: the number of calls to unit-propagate() and pure-literal-assign() drops linearly, but the recursion will stay the same. -- Ed Schouten Nuxi, 's-Hertogenbosch, the Netherlands KvK-nr.: 62051717 ___ freebsd-current@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-current-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

I don't normally use "-z", so I didn't notice it clears these counts and it probably should not, since they are "how many of these that are currently allocated". I'll check this.

Now, why has this occurred? Well, the NFSv4 client can't close NFSv4 Opens on a vnode until that vnode's v_usecount goes to 0. This is because mmap'd files might do I/O after the file descriptor is closed. Now, hopefully Kostik will know something about nullfs and can help with this. My guess is that nullfs ends up acquiring a refcnt on the NFS vnode so the v_usecount doesn't go to 0 and, therefore, the client never closes the NFSv4 Opens. Kostik, do you know if this is the case and whether or not it can be changed? >LocalLock >0 >Rpc Info: >TimedOut Invalid X Replies Retries Requests >0 0 0 0 662 >Cache Info: >Attr HitsMisses Lkup HitsMisses BioR HitsMisses BioW HitsMisses > 127558 837 121 0 0 0 0 >BioRLHitsMisses BioD HitsMisses DirE HitsMisses >1 0 6 0 1 0 > [more stuff snipped] >What role could nullfs be playing? As noted above, my hunch is that is acquiring a refcnt on the NFS client vnode such that the v_usecount doesn't go to zero (at least for a long time) and without a VOP_INACTIVE() on the NFSv4 vnode, the NFSv4 Opens don't get closed and accumulate. (If that isn't correct, it is somehow interfering with the client Closing the NFSv4 Opens in some other way.) rick ___ freebsd-current@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-current-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
