hi everyone, I'm tuning some afs client settings for our Linux 64bit workstations (v1.4.7) and for a test Linux web server (v1.4.6). I noticed that bumping the -daemons option for afsd from 6 to 16 on the web server seems to improve performance along with increasing the stat and volume cache. Increasing the daemons option gave the most improvement.
The afsd man pages says that more than 6 daemons should not be needed, but my experiment seems to prove otherwise. What are the pros and cons of running with more alfsd daemons configured? Should the man page be updated to recommend running more daemons? What metrics can I use besides my applications run time to see that the client is optimized properly? xstat_fs_cache gives me so much data that it's confusing. How do I tell when increasing stat, volume, and daemons options would improve performance? Thanks, Jason _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-info mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info
