Hi guys,
A few weeks ago I got ER working on two servers between my companies. Since
that, I'm experiencing a lot of performance issues that I'd never passed
through before.
The replication is working pretty fine but the server is completely
overloaded.
I think I've checked out everything, although I couldn't find out what might
be happening. I just notice that cpu vps are getting overloaded according a
"onstat -g glo" output. Also, locks on tables are taking longer than ever to
be released.
What should I check to solve that?
----
By the way, I have DELL Servers with 2 Intel XEON processors, with
Hyperthreading enabled. On Linux, the system recognize 4 processors ('cause
of hyperthreading). With that, should I use 2 or 4 CPU Vps? What's better?
---
PS: I did a test, turning off all the 1500 replicates and the systems got
faster as it they were before.
Thanks in advance,
Julio

please give details.
XEON processors there are *many* different ones.
What is your chipset actually?
Post Kernel version, GLICB version and INFORMIX version.
Generally speaking, I would test 1 CPUVP & single CPUVP setup
versus 8 CPUVPs, if your XEONs are >2Ghz and have the larger
L1 caches and if your memory is using >4 chips DDR
If either your Southbridge, or memory, or L2 chache, or
proc speed is not well integrated, then you will see
that the single CPUVP setup is faster
I never had a situation where a 2 CPUVP setup was
anything else that slow.
YMMV
