--Sig_nx9FMI7yBEIq0INZdRL9xWZ Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Hello. I have enabled logging in Gaim, and when a chat message arrives and it is logged the disk writing delays (freezes) the system for less than a second, it can be noticed for example with XMMS which does a strange sound during that period. I think this problem is related to the system and not the port, that's why I asked here. Also I guess more information is needed about this, like ktrace/truss output of Gaim together with kernel statistics (vmstat/iostat). But other than ktrace, I don't use them. What would be the commands to get the most relevant information about this? I am using FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE, and the boot message is here (the file dmesg_machine_2.txt): http://people.freebsd.org/~alepulver/disk-crash.tar.bz2 I posted this in freebsd-hackers@ and got no answer, maybe this is the right place. Thanks and Best Regards, Ale P.S.: please CC me as I'm not subscribed. --Sig_nx9FMI7yBEIq0INZdRL9xWZ Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=signature.asc -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFGKX2riV05EpRcP2ERAv9bAJ9rMud06Vle2GJyI9lZ8Bs3otPwYgCgwBzq MKYeXjn7bWBG3Ms7Xv85iCU= =+Tnr -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Sig_nx9FMI7yBEIq0INZdRL9xWZ--
