I got "option SMP" in the kernel config and "machdep.hlt_logical_cpus=1" in /boot/loader.conf. There are just 20 processes running (typical ones like getty and stuff) and the load of this machine is at 1.xx. There is no bgfsck and other stuff. So, i built a new kernel without "option SMP", rebooted, and the load was at 0.0x. But only one CPU was used (detected). So, what could bei the Problem? Well, the machine shows me 4 CPUs, HTT is not enabled via /boot/loader.conf and "machdep.hyperthreading_allowed". So, how to disable HTT? Maybe this is the problem of the high load? Thanks in advance. ######################################################################## # DISCLAIMER # # # # Der Inhalt dieser E-Mail ist vertraulich.
