Ram, Which distro are you running? I had terrible issues with RedHat 9, RHEL 3.0. Suse 9.x ran fine on xeons, and i havn't taken the time to figure out what the differences are other then notable "Redhat'isms" on the kernel.
I had severe stability issues, yet alone anything traceable as per what you had documented :) Things would just quite working. Sun JVM would say out of memory, IBM Jdk would say something else. Atleast now the messups that i do are re-produceable instead of random issues, and if i find anything that is bug related in Nutch i'll post it. I just think the Redhat kernels did a horrible job on Hyperthreaded/XEON based systems in general as its been an issue on the Web hosting/dedicated server side i used to work on. --- Ram Subbaroyan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Byron, > > I have been using 2.4.x kernel on dual xeon boxes, > and the performance seems > good.
