Andre, we have a number of people running this patch in the following configurations: 6-8GB ram + 10gigE ethernet using iozone over NFS. We're rolling it into the PCBSD rolling update as well. I'm thinking it makes sense to roll this into the 9.2 release to give us more scalability. -Alfred On 7/7/13 1:34 AM, Andre Oppermann wrote: > On 07.07.2013 08:32, Alfred Perlstein wrote: >> Andre, >> >> Are you going to have time to MFC things from -current for >> auto-tuning -stable before 9.2? > > I simply ran out of time on Friday and MFCing such a big change requires > more testing. > >> I fear (maybe unnecessarily?) that we are about to ship yet another >> release that can't do basic >> 10gigE when sufficient memory exists. > > There was some debate with myself whether such a behavior changing MFC > would be appropriate for a mid-stream stable release.
