| David Rhodus | 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...

| Matthew Dillon | 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.

| Matthew Dillon | 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.

| rmkml | 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 ?

PS: Maybe add web page for performance comparaison ?

| Ivan Voras | 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

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?

Well, I'm installing DragonFlyBSD 1.0A on VirtualPC 6.1 on a 12" G4

5.2.1 seemed to hang on probing for devices. So this is a step up :-)

Gang,
Here is a patch set for updating our IPFilter to the latest stable
version, 3.4.35.
fetch http://leaf.dragonflybsd.org/~hmp/ipfilter-3.4.35.diff
After reboot or upon loading the ipl(4) module, you should see:
IP Filter: v3.4.35 initialized. Default = pass all, Logging = enabled
Simple rule set tests and such indicate that it is working fine, but I
haven't tried it with fairly involved ones.
Please test this patch with your rule sets.
NOTE, you will need to apply this patch...

The Biggest New Drug since V1agra! Many times as powerful.

So why is it so much better than V1agra? Why are so many switching brands?

-More enjoyable sex for both
-Longer sex

| glennpj | 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?

You'll notice a DragonFly.cf for imake and other stuff.
