| |
Hello,
as of the last stable version 2.4.18 VM management does not work for me properly. I have Athlon system with 512MB ram, 2.4.18 kernel without any additional patches.
I run following sequence of commands:
dd if=/dev/zero of=/tmp bs=1M count=512 & find / -print & { wait a few seconds } sync
at this point find stops completely or at least almost stops.
The same if I copy from /dev/hdf to /dev/hda. XOSVIEW shows only reading or only writing (as bdflushd is flushing buffers). It never shows parallel reading and writing. /proc/sys/* has default settings. I do not know the reason why i/o system stops when bdflushd is flushing buffers nor reading can be done.
