I mean, if it's writing to random places in these files, for example, your working set is somewhere closer to 8G, and you have a cache that is 1G, well... > I will store a network dump in my public AFS directory and tell you as > soon as I have it - may take some time ... Before you do this, take a look at 'xstat_cm_test <client> -collID 2 -onceonly' (again before/after to be on the safe side), specifically at the hits vs misses, and the numbers for FetchData, FetchStatus, and StoreData, which will give some information about how you're using the cache and how much you're hitting the server. (If you want to show the data here, putting it in public AFS or a pastebin may be nice to the other list denizens) -- Andrew Deason [email protected] _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-info mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info
