[net.bugs.4bsd] HELP - vax 730 runs like tired snail

andyf@brueer.UUCP (Andrew Findlay) (10/18/85)

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz....................

I am running 4.2BSd on a VAX 730.
The machine has one R80 on an IDC, a Floating Point Accelerator,
and two DMF-32s. There is 2MB of memory.

Performance is awful - especially on logins. It takes 35 seconds
of CPU time to log in, whereas a VAX 750 takes about 6 seconds.

The odd thing is this:

Login with password:  35s
Login without password:  10s
su to user with password: 6s

Where has the other 19s gone?

Any suggestions would be much appreciated. (mail please)
