This is a very important point. By turning the cache on, you have not
resolved an underlying performance issue, if there even is one. Please
try dd again with a well-sized bs= parameter, or use some more
accurate reporting like iozone, sysbench, etc.
Also, I am not sure how much memory is on the
The 6i will work on FreeBSD, however realize that a much better choice

just due to the availability and reliability of the tools required for
maintaining the system while running.

I can, as usual, highly recommend M5 Hosting. Mike (the owner) is VERY
helpful and he is very knowledgeable in *BSD - a lot of hosts will
install it, but few know how to use it. His hardware is good and he
uses AMCC (3Ware) cards for RAID. The network rocks.
I can also say I have had decent luck
Is the MySQL daemon still running on that box? I see a mysqldump but
no mysqld. If it is, try doing a shutdown and see if the load
decreases.
Sounds odd, but I have been having similar issues with MySQL.

Can't hurt to try though.

Perhaps on your motherboard, also possible they don't even make it farther
than the pins of the controller chip.
Lots of controllers have lots of ports that never get used.

Guys, careful on the reply to all on this message :-)
If you're looking for FreeBSD hosting, I have had very good luck with
m5hosting.com. It's a small company but they host in a very nice datacenter
with good connectivity, and their support is awesome. The owner (Mike) is

I'd be interested in a read.

Is there any support for built-in redundancy on the server level? I
MyISAM supports locking (like all engines) but not transactions. Without
transactions, you can do a lock lock a table or tables, and unlock them,
however you cannot roll back statements -- so if a statement down the line
fails for some reason there is no way to rollback and undo past statements

While I have heard of project(s) for device driver compatibility I do

This is exactly what labeling your disks solves.
Please see info on 'tunefs' and 'glabel' which provide labels to
devices. Basically, when you insert a device not only does it get its
scan-order-based /dev/___, it also gets a named entry in either
/dev/ufs/ or /dev/label (tunefs/geom).

I don't think it's an accounting bug, my guess is there is an issue in
the kernel.
Have you checked the output of dmesg? Anything unusual? Any issues
accessing locally mounted file systems?
Instead of upgrading, have you considered rebooting? :)
