Frank, Are you by any chance running an ELF version of X? I experienced pretty weird results over the past few days with and ELF X (built as per the port mods posted to the list): a make world running under X would basically bring the box to a halt, massive delays when typing characters on any of the other VTs, etc... this is on a box with 384Mb RAM, SMP w/PPro 200/512 and more than 256Mb free / no swap used, doing nothing else than the build. I'll be rebuilding the box tonight and verify whether this is still happening now that we have "official" XFree86 port mods. Best Regards, PY -----Original Message----- From: Frank Nobis [mailto:fn@radio-do.de] Sent: Monday, September 21, 1998 2:01 PM To: freebsd-smp@FreeBSD.ORG Cc: freebsd-current@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Weired top display at smp current kernel from today Running a mkae world -j4 I noticed only 50% idle time during the make.
