We're having issues with our kernel getting bogged down by callout_list_get.
I sent a mail about this a couple months ago but I never got a reply. My
server is once again spending 80-90% of its time in the kernel and looking
into it, it is callout_list_get that is using up 81% of the kernel
I apologize ahead of time that I do not have more information.
We are running an OpenSolaris snv_111b server for our web deployment. We have
the machine split into 4 zones (plus the root zone), two are still being set up
so not really in use, one is running apache/php, and the other mysql. We

That is sweet.
Can we say that it is UNIX ? At the very least let's look at the
Single UNIX Spec and determine if we can say it is UNIX ?
GNU
