Hi, I seem to have a strange problem. I have a server which is showing a load average of around 1 but cpu usage of 0.6% over two cpus.
What bothers me is that load average used to stay under 0.16 previously - nothing has changed. I have already tried to see if there are any processes blocking using ps auxwww but they all seem to be in State S with a few in SW and two in SWN. %cpu in iowait is also 0% according to top. also, iostat tells me the following (iostat -k) avg-cpu: %user %nice %sys %idle 8.31 0.00 0.75 90.94 Device: tps kB_read/s kB_wrtn/s kB_read kB_wrtn dev8-0 1.72 0.06 19.45 137015 41971011 Its really only running postgresql since it running as a db server. Any help is getting to the bottom of this appreciated. Shri -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Shri Shrikumar U R Byte Solutions Tel: 0845 644 4745 I.T.
