In my case I have all of the debugging options off as per UPDATING. I think I have a system with a different twist though. Here is the uname output: FreeBSD 5.1-BETA #2: Tue May 6 10:38:29 CDT 2003 root_at_node1.cluster.srrc.usda.gov:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/CLUSTER-FW When I first boot the system up it is fine. However, it slows down after a period of time. Within a few hours it is essentially unusable. It does not seem to be a gradual slowdown but I do not know how to quantify that. I did find the following in /var/log/messages after the most recent slowdown: May 6 19:52:21 node1 kernel: swap_pager: indefinite wait buffer: device: twed0s1b, blkno: 408, size: 4096 The system had been up for about four and a half hours and the time stamp above corresponds to when the slowdown occurred. Now, I could be having problems with the 3-Ware RAID card or this could be the same thing that others are reporting. Anyway, I thought I should share that as it might provide a clue to someone. -- Glenn Johnson USDA, ARS, SRRC Phone: (504) 286-4252 New Orleans, LA 70124 e-mail: gjohnson_at_srrc.ars.usda.govReceived on Wed May 07 2003 - 08:35:58 UTC
