Hello world,
I have a small file server running FreeBSD 2.1.0-RELEASE.
Some of the users were complaining about its performance,
so I looked around a little bit and stumbled over the
following:
PID TT STAT TIME COMMAND
86 ?? IWs 0:00.03 nfsd-master (nfsd)
89 ?? I 19:16.46 nfsd-srv (nfsd)
90 ?? I 0:08.04 nfsd-srv (nfsd)
91 ?? I 0:00.11 nfsd-srv (nfsd)
92 ?? I 0:00.01 nfsd-srv (nfsd)
I thought the purpose of having four nfsd-srv processes
was to have the load distributed among them -- so why
isn't that the case (and what do I need to do in order
to distribute it more evenly)?
Any help and suggestions are appreciated.
Gerhard
