Re: performance information



Hi!
  I only get 3 MB/s on a 100Mbps network using a 200MHz ARM CPU
because it runs out of CPU to run the TCP network stack.
  You can find out whether this is your problem by running "vmstat 5"
on a console while you beat the network/disks to death, watching the
"CPU - id" column. If it goes down to 0, that is your problem.  The
same may be true of disk access, especially if you are using RAID.

Do you have any reason to think that *debian* is particularly slow on
this box, or are you just surprised that everything doesn't run at the
speed of the fastest hardware specs for every device?
