Hi,
I was attempting to test temperatures under load by running "cat
/dev/urandom> file" and I thought my system had crashed. Instantly when
this command begins the system becomes very unresponsive. All input over ssh
and keyboard attached to the machine has seemingly varying, but significant,
amounts of lag.
I'm not sure what would be causing this behaviour or how to properly
diagnose it.
The system in question is using the Intel Atom D510MO motherboard (
http://www.intel.com/products/desktop/motherboards/D510MO/D510MO-overview.htm
).
I'm not sure how relevant this is, but the top output seems to indicate
something:

This is after leaving the process running for a few minutes. top updates
maybe once every minute while this goes on and the % cpu time slowly
increases
I'm aware this is a newish piece of equipment and may not be fully supported
yet so I'm not sure if that is the reason or there is some bug here. Or that
this is anything that should be too worried about.
I initially found this behaviour on 4.6-release but then tried the Feb 23?
(or which is on ftp as of a couple hours ago) snapshot. Same behaviour on
both. Both were i386. I haven't yet tried amd64.
Also, I tried a different test running infinite loops to max out all the
CPUs and the system seemed to behave fine.
Oh, I just tried the SP kernel while writing this and the problem only seems
to occur when running the MP kernel.
Sorry for the noise if I'm missing something.
Here's the dmesg:
