Hi Folks,
Has anyone noticed an intermittent overall balkiness with 13.1-64?
I've had the same issue with 13.1-i586.
Has that issue with journald on spinning media been fixed yet?
I'm thinking that's the issue.
I've been keeping a konsole open with top running.
Every single time, loadavg spikes (as high as 40!)
Ny typical load is around 2... (And even that is providing shitty response compared to pre-systemd releases... not just occasionally -- ALL THE TIME!)
Anyway, when the system suddenly drops to a crawl, and the loadavg spikes, top tells me that idle time is 0.0 but wait time is as high as 90%, which means that there is some sort of I/O bottleneck going on, and I wouldn't be surprised in the slightest if it was journald-related, simply because the authors have a history of being flagrantly flaky, and generally not giving a fuck about anything that doesn't concern themselves personally.
I've seen this a couple of times now, but haven't been able to zero in on the cause yet. I'm trying setting "Storage=volatile" in /etc/systemd/journal.conf to see if it makes a difference.
Regards, Lew
Pretty sure those problems have been corrected in 13.2. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
