I have not had this experience. Can you give me details of your machine and the kind of load that causes slugishness? I'll correct it as soon as I can identify it.
The machine is an dual Pentium 2 300MHz, and I'm running gnome 2.4. I do also experience this with my computer at school, a single Pentium3 733MHz.
The load isn't very complicated, usually just gnome 2.4 and mozilla firebird running. If I then do anything that requires lots of cpu, like a compile of a program, the interactivity drops fast.
On the dual machine I have also experienced a *HUGE* increase in the time for "portupgrade -ar" to complete. I am not familiar with how portupgrade works, but it seems to spawn a few make's and sort's, but I am not sure why it is currently using 3 hours instead of 10 minutes to complete! (This was tested when there was no packages to upgrade, which shouldn't take long)
Both machines (this dual and the one at school) are running with a libmap.conf in order to use libkse, is this perhaps affecting the performance of ULE?
I am not sure how useful this is to you, but if you have any other pointers as to what I should look at just ask.
Are you running 5.1-release or 5.1-current?
I ask because I have used ULE on two different kernels so far on this box. One was 5.1-release running gnome2, mozilla, xmms. On this the mouse stutters really badly whenever anything is being compiled.
However on the 5.1-current kernel this behavior no longer happens and the mouse is fine.
I suspect ULE has had a few enhancements between the release and now.
I am running 5.1-current
Dual machine: FreeBSD slurp.rodal.no 5.1-CURRENT FreeBSD 5.1-CURRENT #3: Thu Sep 25 04:03:23 CEST 2003 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/slurp i386
School computer: FreeBSD hauk10.idi.ntnu.no 5.1-CURRENT FreeBSD 5.1-CURRENT #2: Fri Sep 26 09:12:55 CEST 2003 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/hauk10 i386
Ahh I tell you the other difference. I had a USB mouse when I tried ULE with 5.1-release and it stuttered. It's just a ps2 one on the current kernel where it's not stuttering.
Matt.
