fork() under v11

Hugo Perez Santangelo — Mon, 25 Jun 2001 12:26:32 GMT

Hi,
i'm system programmer. Recently migrates a v10.20 service to a v11.00 w/o rebuild it.
The service show some long delaying during
fork()calls. I suspect that is a issue related
with process manager.
Any suggestions?.

Thanks in advance,
HPS

Hi,

I had a similar problem almost 2 years ago on 11.0 forks were slow but vforks were fine. Patch PHKL_18543 (there may be a later version now) fixed it.

Regards, Clay

Thanks Clay for your quick response, is useful.
I'll setup some test using vfork() to isolate the problem.

Regards, Hugo.
