I was doing a dd of dev/zero into a file on a UFS2 filesystem (softupdates disabled) on a clean 5.4-R system.
an exec of top took approximately 30 seconds to complete and then revealed sys: 13% and idle: 87% quit, repeat five times, same delay, same numbers each time. FreeBSD 4.11 managed this with only a minor interactivity hit. What's going on here? Any ideas? _______________________________________________ freebsd-performance@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-performance To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
