I tried powerd++ on a new laptop earlier this year, improved battery life a bit

is this alright to put in pf.conf?

Yep

Then in etc/rc.conf add pf_enable="YES" pf_rules="/etc/pf.conf"

yep :D

thanks my friends

Stéphane

Very thankful for FreeBSD this instant

Stéphane

I have to compare perf for unbound as a cache for an ISP, between ... Debian 8 and FreeBSD 12

Stéphane

Debian stops answering on one IP around 80-90k packets per second and loses packets

Stéphane

FreeBSD keeps asking for more at 500k

I'm deeply into infosec and want to be a pentester later Thanks for that

that doesn't sound right. I'm not saying FreeBSD didn't perform better than Debian, but something sounds off in your benchmark to get that big a split

Stéphane

Yeah, management wouldn't let me tune the NIC on Debian

Stéphane

Ring buffers, queue, etc

Anonymous

yes i know ive been there :) dubious pleasure that it is

Stéphane

And also

Stéphane

Unbound has 16 cores to use

Stéphane

16 threads

im quite interested in FreeBSD's performance next to Linux when it comes to handling lots of small packets

Stéphane

But CPU usage doesn't go beyond 4 cores

Anonymous

as in ive been playing with PF_RING recently, a little

Stéphane

Also, on Linux, the socket layer seems to die -> listen on 1.2.3.4:53, 6.7.8.9:53

Stéphane

Overload 1.2.3.4, that IP stops answering

Stéphane

The others live

Stéphane

Though that quirk may be unbound's

Stéphane

Also when doing monitoring queries with smokeping on both IPs

Stéphane

Linux has all IPs degrade perf when it's about to die

Stéphane

FreeBSD doesn't so much as whimper

Stéphane

Query answer time is near constant

Stéphane

Linux is more all over the place and subject to fluctuations

Anonymous

sry phone :) momen

Stéphane

Same here

Stéphane

Besides, Debian here is... Debian 8 on a Linux 3.16 kernel :(

Stéphane

Again, because management refuses to upgrade because 8 is qualified, and alternatives are untested :)

Stéphane

Now problem is, Debian 8 has reached end of life and they HAVE to move to something else but have no formalized process the honchos will agree on :)

Anonymous

sorry back :) hah where linux got all trigger happy with their versioning, 3.x seems a very long time ago :)

Anonymous

ive found that even on a beautifully tuned system the linux kernel wont handle more than ~1.7 million pps, not without some sort of kernel bypass like netmap or pf_ring or the like

Anonymous

which you only really get to when you start talking about more than 1gbps @ line rate so its not a limitation that most people are going to ever run into

im interested to see how freebsd does under similar conditions, and i tried it briefly on a VM but with very unfavourable results all round from BSD so i thought I'd reserve judgement until i had it running on proper hardware

Anonymous

has anybody else experienced something like this btw? FreeBSD just crawling on a VM?

honestly it was bad enough that the issue had to be my end

I'm trying to activate compiz and emerald in mate Desktop. my PC is using Intel drm driver

But it's not possible. Maybe it's necessary to add some custom configuration in xorg conf

It runs ok but when you try running compiz manager it crashes, promoting glx module is not loaded. I think Intel HD graphics driver is not working in compiz
