Re: reiser4 causes system freeze for 1-2 seconds
Hello Edward, first thanks for your answer. My system has 1536M. After I has started my system with 512M I copied three different files and the system freezed only once for less than 0,5 seconds and ent:hda8! shows up less frequently in top. But after rebooting with 1536M I could not reproduce the longer freezes. So it has to be also related with uptime and programs I'm using. Uptime was 2 days and the most important programs to mention are firefox and azureus. Azureus was downloading to the reiser4 partition but only with 10-15kb/s. I have rebooted with 512M and will try it some days. Thanks Benni On Wed, 04 Apr 2007 03:08:36 +0400 Edward Shishkin [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello.

If this is much more then 512M, then boot with mem=512M, and let us know if this freeze still takes place (to make sure this is because of unwisely assigned atom_max_size). Thanks, Edward.

Hi! Azureus is famous for its fsync() behavior, which is known extremely slow in reiser4. Please search the mailing-list for previous posts.
