Re: Novice needs tuning help!

Also sprach David Williams <djw@smooth1.demon.co.uk> : : Is this a single cpu machine? How fast is the cpu? : Also if NUMCPUVPS=1 set SINGLE_CPU_VP to 1. : :NOAGE 0 # Process aging : : Try setting this to 1 : :AFF_SPROC 0 # Affinity start processor :AFF_NPROCS 0 # Affinity number of processors : : Try setting these to 1 and 1 so it is pinned on the cpu. Just out of curiosity: what possible benefit would you expect to derive in setting affinity on in a single cpu system? There's no other processor for the process to migrate to!
