I've just emerged glibc (with -j2). It's especially noticeable with it. |
| 25 |
Some source files, especially at the beginning of the build, are very |
| 26 |
short and result in a lot processes getting spawned and terminated very |
| 27 |
fast, along with files rapidly created on disk. Can you give glibc a test? |

I've checked my config and can't find anything wrong. I have tickless, |
| 30 |
preempt, 1000Hz, -O2, CFQ. The kernel is stripped off of everything not |
| 31 |
needed. |

Maybe it's due to fglrx? (ATI Catalyst driver.) |
