Load average changed in 6.1?

2017-04-24 Thread Christoph Borsbach

Hello everyone,
first off: I know that the topic of "load" has been discussed numerous 
times, and been a topic on undeadly [1]. I know that this number is not 
that important.


However:
After upgrading 3 of my systems to 6.1 (from 6.0) I noticed the load 
average (15min value) has gone up by roughly 1.0, both in the output of 
daily(8) over some days now and when checking manually with w, top, or 
uptime.

The systems in question differ a bit:
- amd64 MP (KVM-Guest, dmesg [2], load-example [3])
- amd64 SP (VMware Guest, dmesg and examples not handy right now)
- i386 SP (Alix, dmesg [4], load examples [5])

All were upgraded last week with bsd.rd to 6.1-RELEASE. The systems 
perform as well as ever and nothing was changed aside from upgrading 
system and packages. I'm just interested what could change the behavior. 
A quick check of src/sys/uvm/uvm_meter.c does not show me any changes 
recently.


Has anybody observed this as well and has an explanation for this?

Thanks,
Christoph

I don't think it's the nginx.conf, the only thing I did was uncomment this
section...:

--8<---
# pass the PHP scripts to FastCGI server listening on 127.0.0.1:9000
#   
location ~ \.php$ {
  root   /var/www/htdocs;
  fastcgi_pass   127.0.0.1:9000;
  fastcgi_index  index.php;
  fastcgi_param  SCRIPT_FILENAME \
$document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
  includefastcgi_params;
}   
->8-

...after installing PHP. 

Good luck,
Christoph

Hi,
for me, it didn't work as well. I (think I) did everything needed, including
rrdtool-chroot enable, and I had the same effect as you - no graphs. Only
after copying /bin/sh the graphs started working. I didn't do much
investigation though. 
Oh and: I'm running nginx, if that matters.

Thanks and regards,
Christoph

Hi,
sorry, I don't know that, it's a VM at a hoster. I have no acces to the
underlying host.

Hello everyone,
I just wanted to report that I too had this problem (sporadic hangs of the
vio0-Interface) with 5.5-stable/amd64 in a KVM-VM. I tried the solution
described by Philip Guenther and voilá, the problems are gone. I did no tests
with regard to the performance, it seems alright. 

$ dmesg |grep vio

Thanks and have a nice day,

You might want to check out "Terminal",
http://www.os-cillation.de/index.php?id=42&L=5 .
Don't know if its "lightweight" enough for you, as it comes with a few
dependencies you wouldn't need as a fvwm2 user.
