Created an attachment (id=258673) --> (https://bugzilla.novell.com/attachment.cgi?id=258673) [details] tmon.out from host gx110
I study that profile and find really huge amount of call l_debug...so do you have md RAID? if not, how many RAM does have that host? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

host gx110
I study that profile and find really huge amount of call l_debug...so do you have md RAID?
No.
if not, how many RAM does have that host?
512M. That host is a poor performer. On memtest, speed results are a tiny fraction of current hardware, less than 10% even though CPU speed 1/3 or more. Chipset is i810 with PIII/133 @ 1000MHz. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
