of CPU time. -bdg]]
Has anybody come across syslogd hogging CPU time? I have the following
scenario:
A 3/60 with SCSI shoe-boxes for local data swap etc and some NFS mounted
partitions (users' files). When syslogd is invoked it behaves well for a
while and then goes CPU crazy. This has a dramatic effect on performance
sisnce the machine is used by a single user at a time running simulations
for between 30 minutes and 3 days. The simulations are taking nearly
twice as long to complete. Where am I going wrong with syslog(d) ????
