Re: Problems running Tux w/ 2.4.19 generic

logging in general causes hangs of the server at high load - i have wrote
about this to the list. generally, it's freely reproducible by applying high
io load on the machine during high load on the tux server . it have never
been described as "tux drops threads" though, since people had this on
remote servers only, and noone had been present at the console to see what
is going on - the server was simply rebooted to solve the problem. could you
provide detailed info about the state of the server after the freese (it
will not help to solve the problem at the moment, but is still useful)

Should I disable all logging?
