Hey guys,
I recently updated to FreeBSD 7 and noticed that my box started to
perform as windows does under heavier loads. The mouse starts to be
jerky when compiling, window updates/redraws are slow and bump the CPU
usage up to 100%. I attributed this to the mga driver which comes with
the distro in the beginning. However, I later noticed the same happens
even when X has not been started. For instance, I start a kernel compile
and the console mouse becomes jumpy. All these have never happened
before with FreeBSD on this box. It has enough memory (1.5G) and
relatively fast CPU (2.5GHz). I started to think this may be originating
from kernel level (irq handling, long times in giant locked code during
syscalls, etc).
I am wondering whether it is only me who has hit this problem or it is
more common. It may be also related to hardware configuration, etc. I'm
trying to figure out.
Attaching my dmesg output in case it's important.
Yani
