and a little more followup. The chroot is basically a machine's fs's
mounted over nfs over an ipsec tunnel
/chroot/"filesystems"
when I run it /chroot/tmp/benchmark/forksh, I get .2s
but when I chroot into the /chroot tree and run /tmp/benchmark/forksh I
get 1s.
If I make the chroot tree just composed of mount -o bind'd fs from the
host machine, I don't see the slow down.
so to recap
plain linux, local filesystems - it's fine
plain linux, nfs over ipsec filesystems - it's fine
chrooted linux, local filesystems - it's fine
chrooted linux, nfs over ipsec filesystems - it's very slow.
thanks,
shaya
