My simple make benchmark now takes infinitely longer with ULE under SMP, since make -j 16 with ULE under SMP now hangs nfs after about a minute. 4BSD works better. However, some networking bugs have developed in the last few days. One of their manifestations is that SMP kernels always panic in sbdrop() on shutdown. > The nice issue is still outstanding, as is the incorrect wcpu reporting. It may be related to nfs processes not getting any cycles even when there are no niced processes. BruceReceived on Fri Oct 31 2003 - 08:04:09 UTC
