Re: bad gnome responsiveness with network load

2004-05-24 Thread Simon Barner
Hi,

 Summary: with /home NFS mounted at 10Mbit/s, network i/o
 makes my sytem noticeably slower (as in GNOME interactivity). I'm running
 RELENG_5_2, with SCHED_ULE and ADAPTIVE_MUTEXES. 

What NIC are you using? It sounds like your system is slowed down by
vast interrupt stroms (use top an vmstat -i whether interrupts are a
significatan component in your system load).

Mmmhh... It doesn't look like it. The irq19 rate remains constant, and
top doesn't show more than 3% cpu on intr.

xl0: 3Com 3c905C-TX Fast Etherlink XL port 0x3080-0x30ff mem 0xd0101800-0xd010187f 
irq 19 at device 8.0 on pci2
xl0: Ethernet address: 00:e0:81:27:cb:3b
miibus0: MII bus on xl0

514,p2,0$ vmstat -i | grep xl0
irq19: xl0 ohci0  787787 13

Any other thoughts?

tks
