Hi.
I have just gotten 2.0 on a HP Vectra 486/SX-25. An identical machine
runs 1.x unpatched-final-current.
The 2.0 machine just came up day before, and I've been configuring things.
Somehow, the machine feels slower. Iozone indicates the 2.0 machine gets
faster as the file size gets bigger, but things like formatting man pages
take very long.
Both machines have identical hardware, and both kernels are configured
for the barest minimum. Only difference is the 2.0 kernel has mcasting
and mrouting.
1.x$ iozone 20
Writing the 20 Megabyte file, 'iozone.tmp'...48.633333 seconds
Reading the file...86.566667 seconds
IOZONE performance measurements:
431216 bytes/second for writing the file
242258 bytes/second for reading the file
2.0$ iozone 20
Writing the 20 Megabyte file, 'iozone.tmp'...59.734375 seconds
Reading the file...43.296875 seconds
IOZONE performance measurements:
351079 bytes/second for writing the file
484365 bytes/second for reading the file
1.x$ time man netintro
14.78 real 7.58 user 4.01 sys
2.0$ time man netintro
52.76 real 31.24 user 15.62 sys
What should I be looking at? TIA. Cheers.
