SMP?
as root?
Could you publish your scripts then we can try the very same tests on
different machines? It would be wonderful if graph generation is
somewhat automatic from script run, so no skill is needed (apart
parameter setting).
That apart, my current conclusion is that multiprocess approach is
definitely interesting and we need to design an architecture that works
fine with both approaches. Period.
All the rest is very funny and terribly interesting, but this conclusion
is not opinable IMNSHO.
Do you agree?
