My machine runs now like hell. And it's pretty stable. I'm doing make world's and now a make release and am doing benchmarks (all in parallel). And the machine isn't going down ... Most of the time (during cvs checkout and make installs) the machine is damn idle ;-) last pid: 11106; load averages: 0.22, 0.55, 0.55 22:40:43 78 processes: 2 running, 76 sleeping CPU states: 1.0% user, 0.0% nice, 9.1% system, 0.5% interrupt, 89.4% idle Mem: 19M Active, 10M Inact, 17M Wired, 15M Cache, 7601K Buf, 668K Free Swap: 192M Total, 55M Used, 137M Free, 29% Inuse PID USERNAME PRI NICE SIZE RES STATE C TIME WCPU CPU COMMAND 771 root -6 0 868K 660K biowai1 0:51 1.11% 1.11% cvs 11026 root 10 0 376K 664K wait 1 0:00 0.78% 0.04% gmake 598 andreas 18 0 204K 228K pause 0 0:54 0.04% 0.04% ascloc 11001 root 10 0 388K 652K wait 1 0:00 0.27% 0.04% make 11008 root 10 0 372K 636K wait 1 0:00 0.27% 0.04% gmake 11025 root 10 0 488K 228K wait 0 0:00 0.78% 0.04% sh 276 andreas 2 0 7260K 8300K select1 19:11 0.04% 0.04% XF86_S 14764 andreas 2 0 572K 808K select0 0:06 0.04% 0.04% xterm 216 root 92 0 512K 220K CPU0 1 0:12 0.00% 0.00% sh 2200 andreas 28 0 344K 364K CPU1 1 0:51 0.00% 0.00% top Andreas /// -- ///// powered by Symmetric MultiProcessor FreeBSD /////
