Hi
I'm runnning into a bit
of a problem on our nntpcache machine
The main nntpcache process
seems to stay at about 90% cpu usage (PII 350)
I am beginning to suspect the
disk drives as causing a bottleneck here.
I have a 35 Gig spool for the
news articles mounted on /usr/local/var/nntpcache.
In nntpcache.config, I have
cacheDir set to /usr/local/var/nntpcache/
The history files are in
/usr/local/var/nntpcache
The cached news articles are in
/usr/local/var/nntpcache/news.upstream.net.
If I were to change the history
file to be on a different scsi disk, would this improve my
performance?
eg set historyFile to
/usr/local/var/nntpcache/history/cache.history, and mount another scsi on
/usr/local/var/nntpcache/history.
Would there be any other reason
for nntpcached to be using so much cpu?
Regards
