[OmniOS-discuss] kvm instances random short freeze

[Tobias Oetiker]

Hi 

We are running kvm instances on omni r20 and are experiencing random short freezes. 
I wrote the following short test script to see how frequent the freezing occurres 

perl -e 'use Time::HiRes qw(time usleep); my $now = time; while(1){usleep 200000; my $next = time; my $diff = $next - $now; $now=$next; if ($diff > 0.22){ print "".localtime(time)." ".$diff,"\n"}}' 

the output looks like this

as you can see there are quite frequent short freezes ... 

I am running the same script in the omnios global zone there is no freezing over 0.02s 

any ideas ? 

cheers
