What is the kernel doing?

2006-12-19 Thread Jesse Gumm
Right now, I have a fresh machine I just installed earlier today. To test some of the stability, I have a perl script that allocates and deallocates memory over an over. That's it. I have the script running in parallel 3 times, to utilize both CPUs and to get a little bit of preempting in there

ght. It seems like OpenBSD is freaking out at something. Where can I look to see WHAT the system is doing while it has a near monopoly on the CPUs. Any suggestions? Thanks, -Jesse On 11/28/06, L. V. Lammert <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: On Tue, 28 Nov 2006, Jack J. Woehr wrote: > On Nov

Hello there, I run an OpenBSD web server (still running 3.9), and I encounter an unusual intermittent problem. It runs Apache with php, and for the most part it runs great with a load average of around 3-5 processes. Occasionally, however (every few days, lately), it freaks out and it seems to

It's good, but if it's a multiprocessor machine, OpenBSD won't take full advantage of the other processors with MySQL since MySQL is multi-threaded. But it's stable, and runs reasonably fast (and you are assured the system is more secure, being OpenBSD and all). My only concern, then, is really

Definitely check your sysctl kern.maxfiles and probably more importantly, /etc/login.conf. On 6/20/06, Daniel Ouellet <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: vladimir plotnikov wrote: > Hello! > > I have installed OpenBSD 3.8 and MySQL server 4.0.24 (from ports) > From time to time (after high load) I got

Have you tried disabling Hyperthreading in BIOS and seeing if you continue to get this message? From what I've read, hyperthreading tends to lower performance on the BSDs anyway. On 6/15/06, Edgars <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Hi! Thats interesting. May be you can say where is a problem in my cas
