Hello, I noticed that one of our busy production servers seems to be using only one processor. The box, is a Dell 2650, Dual Xeon, with hyperthreading enabled and running debian (Linux 2.6.15-cks2).
Sometimes, the service is very busy (about 100 concurrent connections), but all I see when I run top is that the nsd process using 1 processor (CPU1) at 100%, which is 25% of all CPUs. Seems that nsd is only capable to use on processor, and the other(s) are not used in this specific box. In contrast, another dual dell blade server (dual pentium 3 / Linux 2.6.15-cks3), when the site is busy, the total cpu consumption for the nsd process goes up to 200%, in total 100% CPUs used. Both sites are running aolserver 4.0.10 taken from cvs, branch aolserver_v40_bp from november 2005. Any ideas or suggestions on how to make aolserver to use both CPUs in the first box mentioned? Thanks. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
