The subject is fairly descriptive. Often -- but not always -- an emerge |
2 |
will render my system unusable. At a PORTAGE_NICENESS of 3, and fairly |
3 |
standard MAKEOPTS of "-j2" (on a single-core system), I'm ... well, |
4 |
rather surprised, confused, and very frustrated. I also can't be very |
5 |
specific, because I have no real idea of what's causing this, and the |
6 |
symptoms are very general: The system becomes unresponsive, the mouse |
7 |
will move but with enough of a lag that physically moving it may not |
8 |
cause a cursor movement for the next 30 seconds or so, clicking a |
9 |
taskbar window may not have an effect at all; sometimes I can't even ssh |
10 |
into the system from my other computer (to kill the emerge) because it's |
11 |
slow enough that the ssh daemon times out my login attempt. This never |
12 |
used to happen, I'm not aware of using any weird settings, I recently |
13 |
rebuilt my entire system with conservative CFLAGS (-march=athlon64 -O2 |
14 |
-pipe -fomit-frame-pointer), and I have an x86 (pentium-m) system with |
15 |
very, very similar settings that exhibits no such problems. |
16 |
|
17 |
Any hints, thoughts, or suggestions would be very much welcomed. System |
18 |
info follows. |
