Re: Comparative Mysql DragonFlyBsd v1.0 / FreeBSD v4.10
Its hard to bring the numbers you posted into a true real world load situation. For a real world example, take one typical mysql processing node at the office running DragonFly. The average QPS(queries processed per) during non-peak time is ~24QPS. Durning peak processing time we see an average of around ~60QPS. Even with the non peak time, no FreeBSD box has ever been able to maintain the load average the same exact hardware running DragonFly is able to maintain. As for the dataset size, most...

Re: syscall-msg emulation layer help
There is a separate syscall messaging entry into the kernel. The idea is that the intermediate layer will convert the call to a message and dispatch via the syscall messaging entry point to the kernel. Right now the kernel is processing normal syscalls and doing the conversion itself. -Matt Matthew Dillon <dillon@backplane.com>

Re: questions on thttpd-notimeout package
thttpd is only in there as part of the installer's diskkey / web-based install support [which is not officially supported for the 1.0A release]. You can remove it with pkg_delete and install Apache if you like. I didn't write it so I have on idea what its performance characteristics are, but I have heard that it is a nice light weight web server. Not as feature-full as Apache, but very light weight. -Matt Matthew Dillon

questions on thttpd-notimeout package
Hi, on default install (DFBv1.0), is thttpd-notimeout installed, I don't know thttpd, my questions are, what performance compared apache ? what tested/results performance with thttpd ?? dynamic pages ? Special option/features thttpd with DragonFly ? Regards Rmkml@Wanadoo.fr PS: Maybe add web page for performance comparaison ?

Re: questions on thttpd-notimeout package
No, no, you missed the point entirely. Thttpd isn't here because it's fast or such - in DFly it's used because it's small. Last time I checked the binary was about 65K (and you only need the binary executable to run it; no config files or anything; it's an excellent little server). See http://www.acme.com/software/thttpd/ for details (in short: for dynamic pages it only has CGI support (no "php-modules", and running PHP as CGI is slow), it's VERY fast for serving static content, and can't ...

1.0A + emulators
I'm Using qemu 0.5.5 and it hangs randomly while loading the loader, ej: after "BTX loader 1.00 BTX version is 1.01" or after "Starting the BTX loader" etc, it doesn't hangs always in the same place. In what emulators/emulator versions should I expect DF 1.0A to work?

Re: 1.0A + emulators
Well, I'm installing DragonFlyBSD 1.0A on VirtualPC 6.1 on a 12" G4 Powerbook right now. Seems to be going along without fail. FreeBSD 5.2.1 seemed to hang on probing for devices. So this is a step up :-) : Byron

This Drug puts VlAGRA to shame!!
The Biggest New Drug since V1agra! Many times as powerful. C1AL1S has been seen all over TV as of late. So why is it so much better than V1agra? Why are so many switching brands? -A quicker more stable erection -More enjoyable sex for both -Longer sex -Known to add length to you erection -Lasts up to 36 hours (not a thrity-six hour erection, but enhancement for thirty-six) We have it at a discounted savings.

Yes, that was a minor oversight. The CD boot doesn't run syslogd but the installed rc.conf was not adjusted to change the default. -Matt Matthew Dillon <dillon@backplane.com>

Re: uucico not found
UUCP is not installed in the system. The pseudo-user exists because tty programs often still use it for tty locking. Don't tell me you actually want to use it? You'll have to find a uucp dist and compile DragonFly is a BSD based unix, not linux. And, also, I don't think any of the BSD's has ever received a single bug report related to corrupt password files. -Matt Matthew Dillon <dillon@backplane.com>

Re: PCVT on DFly
Let me know what you think. If it's stable and wont create problems, that's Dunno, but it would be nice to have a Unicode console in BSD and have it take full advantage of video hardware on most PCs (always found syscons annoying to get into a better text-resolution with vidcontrol, so I usually don't bother.) I think it would round-out the offering, Debian has this setup on the Linux side. Gentoo install is a good example of a "pretty" console too. Not sure if I'd ever bother configuring li...

Re: SMP support via ACPI
Just curious here. As of about two, maybe three weeks ago, I was able to boot DragonFly on my P4 HT machine with an SMP kernel. I just did a fresh install of DragonFly BSD 1.0A and now can not boot an SMP kernel. Was there a "simple" change that caused this that could perhaps be reverted or was it a major sub-system import that will require much more work? -- Glenn Johnson
