Friday night I was somewhat more successful with autoflush in that my disks were emptied correctly, albeit very slowly. The new amflush took ~24 hours to complete, a factor of 3 times more slowly than 2.5.1p3. Further, my tape usage was very poor, in 2.5.2 I see:
USAGE BY TAPE: Label Time Size % Nb Nc genepi042 5:03 37759264k 57.8 19 0 genepi043 9:35 71714592k 109.7 23 0 genepi044 8:13 61836128k 94.7 47 0 genepi045 3:17 24587904k 37.6 1 0 Note the first tape was only half used. As far as I can tell, autoflush in 2.5.2 uses a new tape for the old dumps, not filling up the first. I never had this problem with previous versions: USAGE BY TAPE: Label Time Size % Nb Nc genepi035 2:33 54701152k 83.8 40 0 genepi036 3:29 74139808k 113.4 28 0 genepi051 2:36 55659520k 85.1 22 0 In short, amflush, although working now, seems to have performance problems.
