Yeah... We're gonna need some more details. Whats slow? Are you CPU bound or IO bound? How many concurrent db
connections? What does vmstat look like? And 10% of 24 gig is 2.4 gig, not 1 gig.
Or is this box doing something else. I noticeeffective_cache_size is only 5 gig, so you must be doing other things on
thisbox.
