I've a dual core system (see /proc/cpuinfo at the end) running CentOS
4.4 (fully up-to-date) and I'm running a PHP script that's parsing files
and dumping the results into a database. Software versions:
# rpm -q php
php-4.3.9-3.22
# rpm -q MySQL-server-standard
MySQL-server-standard-5.0.27-0.rhel4
# uname -srvmpio
Linux 2.6.9-42.0.3.ELsmp #1 SMP Fri Oct 6 06:21:39 CDT 2006 i686 athlon
i386 GNU/Linux
The thing is, the script process and the MySQL process seem to
arbitrarily jump from one CPU to another. That would be fine, I guess,
but sometimes both processes are on the same CPU core.
Is there a way to keep these processes separate (each one on a different
core), or make them "sticky" w.r.t. the CPU cores?
