Hi, my fileserver (running Current as of yesterday), is showing weird things, not sure if it's a problem with current or something bad in my fs. anyway: with intensive jobs like tar -cf - /, after a non-deterministic amount of time the process will hang, top showing that it is in the 'inode' blocked queue. Then other processes will start hanging too, making the machine useless. Weird thing: it will go on playing NFS-server without problems. Just starting new programs is impossible, ctrl-alt-del won't work, etc... config: single processor machine, using soft updates, used to run smoothly for weeks, now hangs on most really big disk jobs. Strange enough it seems to survive a make world. Does it ring a bel to anyone? -- Nice testing in little China...
