As suggested I turned on all.log and also captured the output from
vmstat -i and top -S as 2 others suggested. From the all.log output I
don't seem to see anything out of the ordinary if I compare it to a
snapshot of all.log on my working environment but maybe I am looking for
the wrong thing ? The same applies for the output of top -S. vmstat's
output may be more interesting though. In both cases I the information
was taken just after boot with a login on tty0 and 1 remote session.
vmstat shows the amount of interrupts for my network interfaces are a
lot higher with todays build compared to my working env from 3 weeks
ago. There is one difference though: I did a rm -rf /usr/obj/* through
ssh on the todays build. Could that be the reason for the difference or
did I find the source of the problem ?
info :
all.log
todays build : http://fstaals.net/junk/rena/all.log.2008.07.02.1140
working env: http://fstaals.net/junk/rena/all.log.stable
top -S output (links so the output is still properly formatted )
todays build: http://fstaals.net/junk/rena/top
