Given the single-threaded nature of much of the kernel, what applications do you run where multiple CPUs makes much of a difference to OpenBSD?
Also, switching from IDE to any of the supported SCSI, SAS or SATA disk types also produces a noticeable improvement. I'm not sure if those are available in every KVM implementation or just the Proxmox-integrated version... IIRC they're available in RHEV too, so most likely they're standard. -Adam On April 17, 2014 11:34:19 AM CDT, Giancarlo Razzolini <grazzol...@gmail.com> wrote: >Em 17-04-2014 07:34, Abel Abraham Camarillo Ojeda escreveu: >> On Thu, Apr 17, 2014 at 5:31 AM, Brandon Mercer >> <yourcomputer...@gmail.com> wrote: >>> It will take me about that long to newfs the 10 kvm's I plan on >using ;) >>> >>> On Thu, Apr 17, 2014 at 5:09 AM, Otto Moerbeek <o...@drijf.net> >wrote: >>>> On Wed, Apr 16, 2014 at 11:16:00PM -0700, Philip Guenther wrote: >>>> >>>>> On Thursday, April 17, 2014, Otto Moerbeek <o...@drijf.net> wrote: >>>>> ... >>>>> >>>>>> But bear in mind that ffs2 has more overhead in terms of >metadata. >>>>>> IMO, making it the default is not a good idea. >>>>>> >>>>> You have fewer than 24 years left to enjoy FFS v1... >>>> and I plan to enjoy every minute of that period! >>>> >>>> -Otto >>>> >>>> >> I found it really fast to work with kvm/openbsd if you use -drive >> ...,if=virtio ... >> like 4x-5x times faster than if=ide -the default- >> >I use everything virtio and the performance difference is quite >notable. >The only complain is that openbsd won't see more than one processor, no >matter what you do. > >-- >Giancarlo Razzolini >GPG: 4096R/77B981BC -- Sent from my Android device with K-9 Mail.
