Hello! I'm experiencing serious slowdown when rc5des runs on my PPro200. I understand that this thing would eat up all the CPU it can, but I did not expect it to noticeable affect the time it takes elm to spawn `more' with a mail message. After I used idprio, the time went from 3-4 seconds to about one -- still long. man also takes noticably longer to come up. "!uname -a" from `vi' just took 2 seconds! It seems, the programs run quick, but take much longer to start. Any ideas? The system is 2.2.6-BETA FreeBSD 2.2.6-BETA #0: Tue Mar 24 13:28:00 EST 1998 mi@xxx.video-collage.com:/usr/src/sys/compile/XXX.NOSCB i386 The top looks like: last pid: 13510; load averages: 1.28, 1.26, 1.26 03:08:29 123 processes: 2 running, 121 sleeping CPU: 2.3% user, 96.9% nice, 0.8% system, 0.0% interrupt, 0.0% idle Mem: 24M Active, 9144K Inact, 20M Wired, 7008K Cache, 7576K Buf, 1912K Free Swap: 192M Total, 108M Used, 84M Free, 56% Inuse PID USERNAME PRI NICE SIZE RES STATE TIME WCPU CPU COMMAND 24850 mi 105 33 596K 240K RUN 178:08 94.99% 94.99% rc5des 3578 mi 2 0 23804K 11936K select 177:32 0.15% 0.15% Xaccel [......] Thanks for clues!
