I know Pete but I downgrad because when installing 6.0 performance was half
than with 4.11.
I done tests and tests but still have very low perfs. I then downdgrad to
4.11 to see if it came from hardware or software.
Conclusion is that my test wich is consist of loop of mysql query done by a
php script take :
- 32 sec with 4.11 without SMP
- 54 sec with 4.11 with SMP
- 62 sec with 6.0 or 6.1 beta 4
That's why actually I'm with 4.11.
If you have any idea how improve perfs with 6.0 it will be a pleasure.
Hardware is new dell 1850 with bi-xeon dualcore 2.8Ghz and scsi 15.000t HDD
on raid1 perc4si 256Mo controller.
Eric.

4.x, SMP and performance don't really live in the same box :-)

Sorry for time to answer, here is result in both case (with/withou SMP)
with freebsd 4.11 :
kern.timecounter.method: 0
kern.timecounter.hardware: i8254
If you want I can do new installation with freebsd 6.0
Thanks,
Eric.

As I understand it, when you activate SMP a more accurate, but slower
timecounter is chosen (typically 'i8254' instead of 'TSC' on intel
HW).
ACPI-fast should be the default with SMP. It's significantly faster
than i8254
Yeah - if his Dell has ACPI enabled. However, ACPI-fast is still slower
than say TSC.
Eric, do you want to show us the output of
$ sysctl kern.timecounter
with and without SMP?
Cheers
