I am a bit newbie to fbsd.I have realized that I can not get use of my whole cpu performance at any time.I think it is a security measure.That's good for security but not good for home usage.I think those values are arranged with sysctl command.But there is not option for cpu utilization at fbsd kernel ?Or there is?Where can I find a document for that(for system perf tunning) Additionally I have another problem.After changing a value with sysctl -w kern.xxx I can see the affect with using "limits" command.It goes on to show old values.Is there a conf file for limits command.It is not much related with sysctl.I can change my system's value with sysctl but it is a bit annoying.Especially for a newbie :) To give an example I am doing sysctl -w kern.openfiles=10000 it says 192--->100000.That shows me value has changed but after that change I use limits command and output is different Resource limits (current): cputime infinity secs filesize infinity kb datasize 524288 kb stacksize 65536 kb coredumpsize infinity kb memoryuse infinity kb memorylocked infinity kb maxprocesses 531 openfiles 1064 sbsize infinity bytes ----- openfiles is 1064 here ...I just have realised that after doing a boot those value in kernel is kern.openfiles: 192 but limits command's output gives me something different.I am in fact a linux user for 3 years.And started to think linux is faster.But I am sure after changing those values(Especially cpu utilization value) I can get a better performance from my fbsd box.Cause until now I have never seen that my cpu load is %100 or more in fbsd.But Linux uses all cpu at any time.Simply using a tar zxvf command can be enough for that...
