[comp.unix.questions] System Industries Disk Cache Processor and 4.3 vaxen

rob@philabs.Philips.Com (Rob Robertson) (12/11/87)

We have a pair of Systems Industries Disk Cache Processors (DCPs) on
evaluation.  They are hooked to our vaxen (an 8600 and a 785) running
4.3bsd.  Since we've had them installed, we really haven't noticed any
real performance gains.  However I really have no idea on how to tweak
the kernel to use them better....

Is there anyone out there using the DCP on a unix vax?  
	
	Question 1
		Do they help at all?
	Question 2
		If they do help how can I configure them to maximize
		the performance increase.

Just knowing someone else out there is using them under BSD would
hearten me.
