Lines: 9 Message-ID: <541gbg$rmf@taro.futuris.net> NNTP-Posting-Host: mango.futuris.com Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Mailer: Mozilla 1.22 (Windows; U; 16bit) We've noticed slow performance in a BSDI 2.1 server which has a busy INN process running on it. Specifically vmstat -m shows no 4096 or 8192 sized memory blocks available. Is there a q&d way to change the memory allocation in the kernel to add more of these buffers? TIA
