Daniel, The FLUSH commands are waiting to be notified that the file has been written out to disk. They block on pthread_cond_wait() and don't return until the queue thread has written the file out to disk. What is happening on your system at that time? Are there other events which may slow down the I/O? I have seen this behavior before on one of my Linux 2.6.x machines. When it has dirtied too many pages, all I/O on the system pauses until it has flushed the "write-back" pages out to disk. What kind of system are you running? > I'm using r1621 + the patch adding pthread_cond_init(&ci->flushed, > NULL); You should upgrade to at least r1626. Otherwise, you may notice some files that are getting flushed by the flush proces (corresponding to the -f timer) are hanging around in queue forever. The bug was introduced in r1588, resolved in r1626. -- kevin brintnall =~ /[EMAIL PROTECTED]/ _______________________________________________ rrd-developers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.oetiker.ch/cgi-bin/listinfo/rrd-developers
