Since stepping up to 6-current just prior to releng_6 and now on 7-current, the %cpu consumed by system as reported by systat -vmstat and top seems incredibly high. I have all of the debugging options turned off in the kernel, as well as: lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 4 Jul 5 18:38 /etc/malloc.conf -> ajrz This machine is running sched_ule though I have tried 4bsd also. It is a Dell c640 2Ghz p4m which seems to have a broken lapic and so is using ACPI-fast. I have also seen this on my amd k7 1.4 tberd which also does not seem to have lapic. My hardware resources are constrained at the moment, so I don't have a lot of machines to play with... Sooo, Is this an expected behavior in -current, or am I missing some debug options that I need to turn off. I can't find anything else to fiddle with. I even tried patching the vm system from yesterdays bug and that didn't seem to have much of an effect on this either. anyway, thanks in advance for any suggestions, or on ways to track it down... it rarely ever goes below 10%, and frequently is 25 - 50% and is generally significantly higher than user % #top -S last pid: 23808; load averages: 0.55, 0.55, 0.54 up 0+01:46:06 19:34:24 138 processes: 3 running, 111 sleeping, 24 waiting CPU states: 3.1% user, 0.0% nice, 16.0% system, 0.8% interrupt, 80.1% idle Mem: 128M Active, 40M Inact, 100M Wired, 420K Cache, 101M Buf, 728M Free Swap: 2023M Total, 2023M Free PID USERNAME THR PRI NICE SIZE RES STATE TIME WCPU COMMAND 11 root 1 171 52 0K 8K RUN 74:26 9.38% idle: cpu0 730 root 1 76 0 66380K 29468K select 5:37 0.00% Xorg 909 rnoland 1 76 0 17100K 11960K select 1:00 0.00% battstat-appl 905 rnoland 1 79 0 17648K 12100K select 0:47 0.00% gnome-netstat robert.Received on Tue Aug 09 2005 - 22:38:22 UTC
