Not sure if this is normal behaviour or not, but on a recent RELENG_11 r321624, I noticed something odd about rand_harvestq. While doing some disk stress testing of zfs, I was creating a bunch of random files. eg dd if=/dev/urandom > /tmp/junk2 bs=1m count=10000 If I create enough of them, rand_harvestq seems to get pegged at 100% on one of my CPUs last pid: 1014; load averages: 1.36, 0.96, 0.65 up 0+00:17:00 14:22:45 49 processes: 3 running, 45 sleeping, 1 waiting CPU: 0.0% user, 0.0% nice, 24.8% system, 0.0% interrupt, 75.2% idle Mem: 24M Active, 4140K Inact, 12G Wired, 4001M Free ARC: 11G Total, 3144K MFU, 11G MRU, 64K Anon, 19M Header, 1224K Other 11G Compressed, 11G Uncompressed, 1.00:1 Ratio Swap: 40G Total, 40G Free PID USERNAME THR PRI NICE SIZE RES STATE C TIME WCPU COMMAND 11 root 4 155 ki31 0K 64K CPU0 0 55:37 302.56% idle 16 root 1 -16 - 0K 16K CPU3 3 10:39 105.60% rand_harvestq 1014 root 1 20 0 7892K 2668K CPU2 2 0:00 0.03% top And it stays there # ps auxwS | head -5 USER PID %CPU %MEM VSZ RSS TT STAT STARTED TIME COMMAND root 11 295.2 0.0 0 64 - RL 14:05 59:05.25 [idle] root 16 100.0 0.0 0 16 - RL 14:05 11:48.24 [rand_harvestq] root 0 0.0 0.1 0 8400 - DLs 14:05 0:08.96 [kernel] root 1 0.0 0.0 5408 588 - ILs 14:05 0:00.84 /sbin/init Any idea whats going on ?
