Like I said, remove both pipes and queues to test. However, pipes _can_ be used without queues, but that is irrelevant here. Try setting HZ to 1000 in your kernel config, recompile, reboot, and test again. You should see something between a slight improvement to a ten-fold improvement. -- Chris Dillon - cdillon(at)wolves.k12.mo.us FreeBSD: The fastest, most open, and most stable OS on the planet - Available for IA32, IA64, AMD64, PC98, Alpha, and UltraSPARC architectures - PowerPC, ARM, MIPS, and S/390 under development - http://www.freebsd.org Q: Because it reverses the logical flow of conversation.
