2.4 -> 2.6 transition major performance issues
Subsystems (2)
Hi there,
while trying to update my Debian sarge system from Kernel 2.4. to 2.6 I came across a very strange Problem with The Kernel NFS-Server.
I use a somewhat slow Machine (666 MHz VIA Samuel) as an NFS-Server for a diskless Linux Workstation (root-NFS) and home directories.
This works fine as long as the Server is running vanilla 2.4.31. Now, after updating the Kernel to linux vanilla 2.6.11.10 the System will get almost unusable if NFS activity occurs! E.g. building a Kernel inside of an NFS-mounted home-directory gives me a System load of about 2.0 on the Server.
Compared to Kernel 2.4 the boot-time of the diskless Machine is increased by a faktor of two running Kernel 2.6.
Do you have any hint where I could start to debug this? I already made shure, that NFSv3 is used in any case.
