If SMF starts too many services in parallel, wouldn't that actually slow things down, with more context switches due to time slicing? If so, would the answer be to pace starts proportionate to the number of hardware threads available to the zone, or would it work better to throttle based on the rate of involuntary context switches? -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
