hi
i have a athlon 950 MHz (Via 686 chipset) that's acting funny on 2.4.2, 2.4.6, 2.4.10 and 2.4.12-ac3 with Rik's VM. 512 MB memory, 1 GB swap. all partitions are ext2, and the system is a RH 7.1.
after some time running (apache/mysql/bind, not really heavy load for the bos, except for backing up sites), load starts to go higher and higher, and eventually (after reaching loads of 70 - 90), it only responds pings. since it's in a farming facility and this behaviour is not predictable (not cron-related, for example) i can't see any console output. this happend about dayly on 2.4.6, and about weekly now (2.4.12-ac3 rik vm).
i guess it's all VM related, since it seems to get better, with the kernel upgrades, but i'm not sure anyway.
does anyone have any idea of what might i do? i plan to give 2.4.14 a try, but don't know what patches or options do you believe will be better. (no, i dont have another machine at hand to test, and yes, it's our production server).
thanks in advance,
M.
