hi there, i just stumbled upon the fact that vmstat -m reports a massive amount of malloc(9) requests coming from futexes. for me it's higher than any other type. also every request made is only 128 bytes. these calls seem to be responsible for this:
linux_futex.c:193: tmpf = malloc(sizeof(*tmpf), M_FUTEX, M_WAITOK | M_ZERO); linux_futex.c:223: *wp = malloc(sizeof(struct waiting_proc), M_FUTEX_WP, M_WAITOK); the #requests are ~ 5 billion with uptime reporting ~ 3 days. might this be one of the reasons for the performance issues with flash e.g.? cheers. alex -- a13x _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-emulation To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
