I never told the system (through fstab), to mount sync or async. I added softupdates today and put sync under the mount options just to be safe, but now it appears to actually make the system slower ? Is this because the system default to async ? Here is the mount information and my fstab (with the old entries commented out, b/c I also added the slice/devfs stuff): (foo:513:~/cvsup)mount /dev/sd0a on / (local, synchronous, writes: sync 601 async 105) devfs on dummy_mount (local) devfs on /dev (local, noexec, read-only) /dev/sd0f on /usr (local, synchronous, soft-updates, writes: sync 4559 async 780) /dev/sd0e on /var (local, synchronous, soft-updates, writes: sync 498 async 88) procfs on /proc (local) (foo:514:~/cvsup)cat /etc/fstab # Device Mountpoint FStype Options Dump Pass# # /dev/sd0b none swap sw 0 0 /dev/sd0a / ufs rw,sync 1 1 /dev/sd0f /usr ufs rw,sync 2 2 /dev/sd0e /var ufs rw,sync 2 2 proc /proc procfs rw 0 0 /dev/cd0c /cdrom cd9660 ro,noauto 0 0 #/dev/sd0b /tmp mfs rw 0 0 # #/dev/sd0s1b none swap sw 0 0 #/dev/sd0s1a / ufs rw 1 1 #/dev/sd0s1f /usr ufs rw 2 2 #/dev/sd0s1e /var ufs rw 2 2 #proc /proc procfs rw 0 0 #/dev/cd0c /cdrom cd9660 ro,noauto 0 0 (foo:515:~/cvsup) Jay -- 4.4 > 95 http://www.xcf.berkeley.edu To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
