Hi, Duke; This message means that the filesystem in question (/usr) is beginning to fill up. Have a look at your `df` output, your /usr partition is likely nearing its capacity. The error message itself means the kernel and related file subsystems are attempting to optimize writes by space on the drive, to try and save as much room as possible. Generally, this means slower writes, but, perhaps more importantly, it means you're just about out of room :-) -- Ryan Thompson <ryan@sasknow.com> 50% Owner, Technical and Accounts Phone: +1 (306) 664-1161 SaskNow Technologies http://www.sasknow.com #106-380 3120 8th St E Saskatoon, SK S7H 0W2 On Sat, 18 Dec 1999, Duke Normandin wrote: > While installing the src distribution, the following message > appeared: > > Dec. 18 17:01:16 odie /kernel:/usr: Optimization changed from TIME to > SPACE > > What does it mean and should I be concerned? > > TIA......duke > > > > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
