FreeBSD belly up with big config

2000-08-05 Thread Dennis
With 1800 interfaces in the system Freebsd seems to use about 50Mhz of cpu when idle in "interrupts" even when there are no interrupts to process. on a 500Mhz box it uses 10% of the cpu and it seems linear with different speed processors. the 1800 interfaces are 900 DLCIs on a T3 frame with 900 b
