What version of BIND did you have on RHEL5? Does your RHEL6 named get any better if you try ‘-U #’ (where # is half or less your cpu count)? _S On Nov 21, 2013, at 7:35 AM, Phil Mayers wrote: > On 21/11/13 14:57, - wrote: > >> Are others seeing the named process run at 130-180% on RHEL 6? We'v

Daniel, what do you see the load as? I see 4.6% CPU usage (100% possible - 95.4% idle). I'm not sure which versions of BIND you were using on RHEL5, but the newer versions do tend to use more CPU usage (I'll assume due to new features, patches, etc in the BIND code). --Blake - wrote the fol
