I have an OpenVZ VPS running arch. For some reason pacman is superslow, and I'm not allowed to create/use loopback devices. pacman-optimize takes nearly 5 minutes per run, no matter the last run was just a minute ago. -- Regards, Nilesh Govindarajan Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/nilesh.gr Twitter: http://twitter.com/nileshgr Website: http://www.itech7.com VPS Hosting: http://www.itech7.com/a/vps

This is neither `free -m` output or `uptime` output. Buffers and cache values are important, thus the original request. At least I don't have time to debug issues when I don't get the *full* details I ask for. `df -h` would be good too, but I'm not going to waste my time here unless you offer some help and at least attempt to look into this on your own. With a load average between 1 and 5, I'm guessing you have several tasks high on disk I/O. I would recommend digging into `vmstat` and `iotop -o` output and doing debugging of your own. -Dan
Okay, sorry about that. Here's the relevant stuff: uptime: 22:04:53 up 26 days, 17:16, 1 user, load average: 0.03, 0.01, 0.00 Now it doesn't seem to touch even 1. free -m: total used free shared buffers cached Mem: 512 251 260 0 0 0 -/+ buffers/cache: 251 260 Swap: 0 0 0 df -h: Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/simfs 30G 11G 20G 37% / udev 10M 8.0K 10M 1% /dev none 256M 0 256M 0% /dev/shm -- Regards, Nilesh Govindarajan Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/nilesh.gr Twitter: http://twitter.com/nileshgr Website: http://www.itech7.com VPS Hosting: http://www.itech7.com/a/vps
