freezing under high load

gbi

Hi All,

I'd like to ask, there are some reports that the BaPi freezes under high network load, for instance

http://cbwebs.de/single-board-co ... k-when-cpu-is-busy/

or

http://forum.lemaker.org/viewthread.php?tid=1792

but they seem to use RaspBian (which is not optimized for the CPU of the BaPi)

This leads me to the obvious question . What about Bananian and high network load, is the BaPi also freezing ?

Thanks in advance

Hi faggot,

Get the new Bananian Linux. No problem with high loads anymore.
Nico did awesome work on avoiding these shit!

This is sometimes caused by the old kernel config.

Thanks Tony,

@all: in this review

http://www.linuxuser.co.uk/revie ... tier-than-raspberry

the reviewer claims that thruput of the NIC is only 233 MBit/s, which is far away from the 1Gbit which is theoretically possible.

So my next question, has anybody done some thruput measuring with a recent kernel, how much traffic the GBit NIC is able to handle ? Should not be to complicated with iperf, netperf or Jmeter.

Thanks in advance

I have read this article about a month ago. 233 is really far away from 1GB. But gmac speed is effected by many issues. I remembered that I have seen a 300+M test on Banana Pi, but I forgot where.

But it is really more faster than Raspberry Pi..
