Hello Freebsd-hackers,
I'm experiencing very strange situation on my lab system which is
E3-1220v2, 8GiB of RAM and 850 EVO SATA SSD (with single ZFS pool).
It runs CURRENT r341157. Kernel is built *without* INVARIANTS and other
heavy debug aids.
Everything works great — but compilation. "make -j *1* buildkernel" takes
forever and each compiler invocation takes up to 10 seconds. For example,
I've clocked compilation of sys/dev/aic7xxx/aic7xxx_93cx6.c by stopwatch and
it takes 9 seconds. Please note, it is SINGLE JOB build. If I run "make
-j4" it will be much longer for each compiler out of 4. And all this time
"cc" / "c++" consume 100% of CPU.
Even when build is single-job, system becomes unresponsive. With
4-job build running it could takes up to minute to switch screen's windows!
Another strange thing I noticed: when system is in such state, "top -SH"
shows that sometimes very low-profile processes, like clock software
interrupt (!) could consume large amount of CPU for short periods time. When
system is idle there never will be "intr{swi4: clock (0)}" consuming 55% CPU
for one "frame" or sshd, or screen itself.
I'm completely lost. Is it problem of software? Hardware? If it is
hardware problem what should I blame?
I've checked all "standard" places — CPU is not throttling, SSD looks
perfectly Ok according to SMART and there is no complains from AHCI driver
about timeouts and such, system doesn't start to use swap.
