Hi,
Tested this feature to see if it helps me with apache benchmark problem - no it does not . Also it looks like it is firewall related issue as if firewall is totally disabled (pf fails to load rules) everything works as expected. Speaking about Network pooling - in my case it increased packet round trip (2 Gbit Nicks) from 0.4 ms to 2ms. At the same time it well decreased CPU usage during the tests so this is something to consider if CPU performance ever becomes the problem. On other hand I was a bit surprised - according to vmstat number of interrupts even on idle box jumped to some 30.000/sec (from some 150 without this option set) I guess these are timer interrupts are used for pooling, so why they are pooled about 1000 times per second if we get so many timer interrupts ? One more thing to note: system needs to be restarted for this option to take an affect, however it does not say so anywhere. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
