Thank you for your responses. I do not want to slowly trim the virtual storage even though there is no swapping going on. We are at 384MB and this is a productive system. To make a change, schedule a reboot, test and repeat is difficult. If it were a paging issue the first ping of a stream of pings (ping --c 20 <system name>) would be the long one and each following ping would be short. That is not the case. Also tcpdump-qeth shows short times, so the system is responding fine. It is somewhere between where tcpdump-qeth looks and the GLAN.
We do have the high ADP count that Sal suggested that we look at. We have a hypersocket LAN and are going to real hypersockets, so converting to a QDIO LAN is not an option. I will keep looking. If anyone thinks of anything, let me know, Thanks all, _/) Tom Shilson ~~~~~ GEDW & VM System Services Aloha Tel: 651-733-7591 tshilson at mmm dot com Fax: 651-736-7689 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
