Hm. For some reason, today, syslogd started taking up more than its share of CPU. (About 20% on a P200.)
I did an strace on the process, and saw lots of stuff like this: read(21, "<22>Dec 11 16:03:34 cucipop[3129"..., 1024) = 72 time([881885014]) = 881885014 writev(4, [{"Dec 11 16:03:34", 15}, {" ", 1}, {"always", 6}, {" ", 1}, {"cucipop[3129]: movinon 207.167.9"..., 51}, {"\n", 1}], 6) = 75 writev(8, [{"Dec 11 16:03:34", 15}, {" ", 1}, {"always", 6}, {" ", 1}, {"cucipop[3129]: movinon 207.167.9"..., 51}, {"\n", 1}], 6) = 75 fsync(8) = 0 writev(11, [{"Dec 11 16:03:34", 15}, {" ", 1}, {"always", 6}, {" ", 1}, {"cucipop[3129]: movinon 207.167.9"..., 51}, {"\n", 1}], 6) = 75 writev(19, [{"Dec 11 16:03:34", 15}, {" ", 1}, {"always", 6}, {" ", 1}, {"cucipop[3129]: movinon 207.167.9"..., 51}, {"\n", 1}], 6) = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily unavailable) select(1024, [0 2 21], NULL, NULL, NULL) = 1 (in [21]) read(21, "", 1024) = 0 close(21) = 0 select(1024, [0 2], NULL, NULL, NULL <unfinished ...> That EAGAIN disturbs me.
