Wow, I just noticed a siginifcant problem with Gentoo Performance with "Quotas"
|
2 |
|
3 |
according to "System Security Guide", one of the documentation, enabling quotas
|
4 |
should not be a problem.
|
5 |
|
6 |
However, I just removed quota from activating, and there was a significat
|
7 |
improvment in memory usage, and responsiveness.
|
8 |
|
9 |
HEre is the test system, y'all know.
|
10 |
|
11 |
933MHz P3 coppermine
|
12 |
512MB Physica Memory
|
13 |
40GB HDD 7200RPM
|
14 |
80GB HDD 1K RPM (<-- /home folders, quotas set)
|
15 |
1024MB Swap.
|
16 |
|
17 |
The server's physical memory usage went down from,
|
18 |
|
19 |
~510MB to ~50MB
|
20 |
|
21 |
when I turned off quota, and Apache2 and vsFTPD was running.
|
22 |
|
23 |
The server's responsiveness to regular mysql query with 100 fields,
|
24 |
were from
|
25 |
|
26 |
3sec to ~0.3sec.
|
27 |
|
28 |
This is weird, I guess Gentoo is not too good with Quotas. I just made a clean
|
29 |
installation to 2.6.7 Development-sources due to previous swap problem.
