Do I need to switch to MP system?

Hello! We have OpenBSD acting as router+IPsec vpn concentrator. Our company expanding, so I noticed what "interrupt" in top sometimes jumps to 30-40%, and always about ~25% in average. Server is DL360 server with bge0 and bge1. So I want to upgrade to newer multicore system. Can it help? Is

OSPFd and ipsec routes

Re: Do I need to switch to MP system?

Re: Kernel trap with custom ramdisk

Surely I have read FAQ, especially '5 - Building the System from Source' but there is no section about building custom ramdisk. Probably one should be included, so you see less *dumb* questions about it. Obviously people need to build them for many reasons, like completely in RAM internet ki

Thanks all for suggestions. I have got finally what I want. I have created base ramdisk about 4Megs, then I'm fetching all other daemont/tools into the mfs disk ang run them. This solution works for now. 30.04.08, 01:58, "Daniel Ouellet" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > I guess what people try to
