it immediately shows my correct hostname with fqnd - do you have an entry in /etc/hosts which maps this name to your correct > IP address?

Maybe related to http://marc.info/?l=openbsd-misc&m=118344447716454&w=2, i'll try to perform disk i/o tests.. but i'm really stuck with this issue. Performance is really bad. I'll try too with acpi disabled. Thanks for any hint, Landry
