David, Did you add the test instructions to the Berkeley DB section? If so, it must have been while I was on vacation. In any case, I tried to run it last night. The system was a 2GHz P4 with 1G Ram. When I left about 6PM it had been running several hours and supposedly had less than an hour to go. When I checked on it about 2PM today (20 hours later), the system was *very* slow. The screen did say that all 1562 tests were done. I finally was able to get top working and found a load factor of 17! There were four processes that were using 25% of the CPU each -- all named something like tcl8.4. When I killed these processes, I got control of my system back. I also had to kill several other remnant processes. Do you have any idea what was going on? Also, I think it might be better to have the book use instructions something like: tclsh From the tclsh prompt (%), run: source ../test/test.tcl run_parallel 4 run_std exit make realclean cd .. Also there is a typo in the book. There is cd.. which should be cd .. (note the space). -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
