In fact, autofs wasn't even installed on one of the other servers. So on the non-problematic server with a /net directory, it's just an empty directory. I'm totally convinced that autofs was causing the 3-second delays on stat64 /net/* calls. So the answer to our old question "what's different about the problematic server?" is "it's running autofs, which is creating and locking /net". (I've now uninstalled autofs on all servers.) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
