I read a MS whitepaper a few weeks back that said if you are hitting 2
often, you have a processor problem. It's was a Win2k white paper, but I
think it applies to NT4 as well.

I was averaging 2, added a second processor and now average 0.

Processor queues are always bad, I wouldn't think that the expected queue
length should have changed from NT4 to 2K.

Anywhere > 1.5 gets my attention.

Hi folks,

In the NT 4.0 world, processor queue length was supposed to be at 2 or below
(for the most part). In Win2K, experience tells me that 3 is fairly normal.
We've got a few servers running Win2K server, and various CPU's, memory etc,
but they all seem to get to 3 quite a bit (even simple file and print
servers).

Have other people seen this? I tried to find the official word from MS about
this, but it looks like the rehash of NT 4.0 stuff, and not updated.

Comments??

Mark
