Hello, all! I'm still in the initial stages of troubleshooting this, but has anyone else noticed that NetBSD-3.0 is *very* slow on sun3 compared to 2.x? I'm using the GENERIC kernel on a 3/60 w/24Mb. Network access appears to be normal and speedy, but everything else is intolerably slow. I first noticed this when enabling ssh and it took almost 6 hours to create a DSA key... clearly something was wrong. My next clue was when trying to recompile the kernel, "make depend" wasn't complete, even after 24+ hours. The last straw was attempting to untar something (screen-4.0.2.tar.gz), and after 15 minutes, it still wasn't extracting files from the tarball... iostat was showing no disk or CPU activity. I haven't had a chance to troubleshoot this much further because it's running *so* slowly. This same machine was running 2.0.2 only a few days before with no issues, so the hardware, as far as I can tell, is not affected. I'm not seeing any errors anywhere either. I double-checked GNATS and didn't see an open issue for it. Before I dig into this further with ktrace, etc., is anyone else seeing this? Thanks in advance!
