As indicated I am desperate to get this fixed and would welcome any assistance in solving the issue. I am happy to pay consultant rates for anyone who can resolve this issue. Regards Dave We have a system using FreeBSD 3.0 which we have been using without problems for many months. We have attached a SCSI RAID system, via an AHA3940 and during a stress test the system hangs. The stress test is seven processes running which create a large number of small files than deletes them all. The symptom is that the system locks up, no output on console and nothing logged. We have tried this on several different hardware platforms and got the same result. We have tried it on WindowsNT and the test appears to run okay. We have tried it on FreeBSD 4.0, and 4.1 and get the same the bug. Linux also has a problem when we run our test. Help ! I have mailed freebsd-bugs but have not received any replies. This is a commercial product and we have found this bug late in the development cycle hence we are desperate to get it fixed. We are prepared to offer a reward/pay for consultation for solving this issue.
