It runs on Qemu with the OS on a qcow2 Virtual Disk ( file ) and Backup Data on Two Physical Disks. It mirrors from Master PFSes on backup server on another floor. Also It's own master PFSes are backed up by the slaves on the other one. === load averages: 0.90, 0.56, 0.25; up 0+00:14:46 06:17:01 28 processes: 2 running, 28 active CPU states: 62.1% user, 0.0% nice, 36.1% system, 0.5% interrupt, 1.4% idle Memory: 36M Active, 938M Inact, 182M Wired, 94M Buf, 1843M Free Swap: 1734M Total, 1734M Free === Make Build takes a very long time on it Some times more than 8 hours. Possibly due to the Poor perfaomance on the UnderLying REAL Hardware. In order to update it is it enough that I rsync /usr/src and /usr/obj/usr/src from the faster server after building 'world' and 'kernel' and then run only # make installkernel KERNCONF=GENERIC make installworld make upgrade reboot If not what it the best way to update a slower machine? I usually buildworld on the fastest box around me then cpdup the /usr/obj to the relative slow boxes. However, I still let slow boxes compile their own kernels.

Siju, I NFS mount /usr/src and /usr/obj in the slow machine (being the NFS server the faster machine) and then I issue the usual installkernel/installworld/upgrade commands.
