Here is the reply I got: ---------------------------------------------------------------- > increase the timeout value. If this is necessary something is wrong with your system. The test is doing almost no work. It terminates almost instantly. I think you might want to look at the problems. -- ---------------. ,-. 1325 Chesapeake Terrace Ulrich Drepper \ ,-------------------' \ Sunnyvale, CA 94089 USA Red Hat `--' drepper at redhat.com `------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------ So I looked into test-lfs.c and found that it tries to write to a tmp file in /tmp. So I created a ext2 partition and mounted that to /tmp. After that test-lfs runs in under a second. With /tmp on reiserfs it takes 27 sec's. So my first explanation that it is a reiserfs-low latency problem seems to be correct. I will update my kernel now to a more recent version and hope that the problem is fixed. Since Suse 7.1 ships with 2.4/reiserfs I think this problem is solved. achim~ > > > Best Regards, > > -- > Daniel Robbins > President/CEO http://www.gentoo.org > Gentoo Technologies, Inc. > > _______________________________________________ > gentoo-dev mailing list > gentoo-dev@gentoo.org > http://www.gentoo.org/mailman/listinfo/gentoo-dev
