Hello,

today I complaint about the performance on one of my NetBSD machines which
was running a CVS update of a local source tree from a local mirror of
NetBSD's CVS repository. The I/O load caused severe delays during
interactive work.

I wonder if there can be done anything about this without a complete
rewrite of NetBSD's VFS and I/O code. What would e.g. happen if I move
the partitions with the source tree and CVS repository on a seperate
disk. Will that make the system more responsive? How well does NetBSD
scale with multiple hostadapters and drives?

	Kind regards
