Hello everyone. I got a VPS from ARPNet., testing it around.. Under OpenBSD 5.3, what kernel would you suggest to be builded? Would "GENERIC.MP" give some performance benefits over the system? Thanks.
I believe your VPS has one core by default unless you order more cores, so I'm not sure the mp kernel would confer much benefit
I could be wrong
if you type: sysctl hw.ncpufound
and the result is
hw.ncpufound=1
then GENERIC.MP will cause performance loss vs GENERIC, MP is for multiple cpus
Dmesg shows: cpu0: QEMU Virtual CPU version 0.12.3, 2600.54 MHz - and ONLY cpu0, so that's a single-core we'd assume?
by default you get 1 cpu unless you specifically request it, is the other hint
Yep, it outputs; hw.ncpufound=1
Many thanks toddf.
also be sure to do the 'disable mpbios' or you'll wonder why the system hangs processing interrupts
Oh, true. Thanks once again.
hey
hi
there was a network problem right?
or rather, my VM crashed
or rather, the computer where my VM is was rebooted
rpaulo: what system you on?
kvrXX
brycec: kvr22
up_the_irons was having problems with kvr02 the other day, but no mention of kvr22
this happened 30 min ago
Anyone online tonight?
Curious if anyone can tell me more about this line from the Dedicated Servers page: "built with redundancy and high availability in mind"
