(sorry for my english)
I have a strange problem :
I use for my dom0 the kernel of dom0
On my DomU (all is redhat 4.3), Process nash-hotplug take 99% CPU.
I have already see in mail archives that i can kill this process.
Indeed, is a good soluce, but It have big consequence : Network become
very slow !
In an other machine on network, i use a ping flood and i look performance.
When nash is running, i observe 200-300 ko/s.
If i kill bash (or just STOP it with a kill -STOP), i have 40-50 ko/s
maximum (if i restart nash with kill -CONT, i have again 300ko/s !)
I try to make a new initrd in domU : i don't have nash any more, but
network is slow every time.
I notice that if i use vcpus > 1 in domU, network is slow every time.
with vpcus=1 and nash running : all is ok (except cpu load)
I have 2 others servers, exactly the same, but without several bridge
(just one), upgrade ok for centos 5, and network stay quick when i kill
nash: it is a coincidence, or a bug is already fixed ?
DomU : redhat 4.3, 64bit
ex :
kernel = '/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18-8.1.4.el5xen'
ramdisk = '/boot/initrd-2.6.18-8.1.4.el5xen-domU.img'
memory = '750'
root ='LABEL=xenpiraatsda1'
disk = ['phy:/dev/rootvg/xen_piraat_sda1,sda1,w']
cpus = "1-3"
vcpus = 1
# Hostname
name = 'piraat'
# Networking
dhcp = 'dhcp'
vif = [ 'mac=00:16:3E:2F:18:F7, bridge=xenbr0' ]
# Behaviour
on_poweroff = 'destroy'
on_reboot = 'restart'
on_crash = 'restart'
