Message-ID: <95980000.989205376@lobster.originative.co.uk> X-Mailer: Mulberry/2.0.8 (Linux/x86 Demo) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline Sender: owner-freebsd-current@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG My dev box seems to be a bit sick and has been for a day or two. If anything disk intensive is taking place, and it seems to be particularly when gzipping/unzipping files, say when building mozilla during the extract step, things start to crawl and I'm seeing hundreds (500-1200) of interrupts a second for ata0 in vmstat. A network transfer at the same time, just scp a file across my 100M LAN, crawls at around 20k/s with 50-100 interrupts/s. Is anyone else seeing anything like this? Paul.
