Hi list, I have a Web- & Mailserver running, the responsetimes even let me drink several coffees, if i request my Mails via squirrelmail. My Hardware: HP Netserver P3/886 mhz, 128 mb ram Most consumpting processes: apache, amavisd-new (including virual check), spamd, postfix, cyrus, mysql...see list below top - 09:51:20 up 4 days, 14:54, 1 user, load average: 4.99, 2.77, 1.85 Tasks: 104 total, 1 running, 103 sleeping, 0 stopped, 0 zombie Cpu(s): 1.2% us, 0.6% sy, 0.0% ni, 0.0% id, 98.1% wa, 0.1% hi, 0.0% si Mem: 126288k total, 124124k used, 2164k free, 612k buffers Swap: 262136k total, 132232k used, 129904k free, 15156k cached PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND 21266 apache 15 0 27700 9.8m 3632 D 1.0 7.9 0:18.49 httpd 29426 amavis 17 0 42644 20m 2416 D 1.0 16.9 0:03.68 amavisd 29783 root 16 0 2888 892 696 R 0.7 0.7 0:05.72 top 5396 root 15 0 15232 1564 1104 S 0.3 1.2 23:06.53 X 29433 amavis 17 0 43036 20m 2500 D 0.3 16.9 0:03.06 amavisd 29855 cyrus 16 0 29768 2120 1828 D 0.3 1.7 0:00.04 imapd ...look at the load average ;-) i already forked most apps from 8 to 5 back to 3 forks max to save ressources. but i get the impression, that it is just one process, that somehow is just misconfigured...do you have any hints for me? btw. i would be very interessted, what the 3 figures on tload effective mean :-) Roger
