Hello fellow managers !
I'm looking for suggestions/gotchas on the use of runon to bind process
to specific CPUs. We have a AS8400 with 8 CPUs (4 cards), used basically
as a database (Ingres) engine. We have 8 dbms processes running, so it
looks natural to bind each process to a separate CPU. As I understand
it,
the CPU cache behaviour would benefit in this way. Am I right ? And
while
we are on this subject, could anybody briefly explain what happens to
the
L1/L2 caches during context switch ?. Of course I'll summarize !
Thanks in advance,
