After upgrading some jails to 10.3-RELEASE I noticed that the extraction of packages is extremely slow but it seems to only be in the jail, the host system is fast.
I experimented with two versions of the exact same jail, upgrading a 10.2-RELEASE to 10.3-RELEASE, the 10.2-RELEASE running on a same version host and the same with the 10.3-RELEASE version. I then timed the
Like I said, both jails had the exact same packages installed and were identical in every way with the exception of the OS version. Also, the host hardware is identical.
The bottleneck was the package extraction. For example to extract python27 and perl5 took roughly 57 to 58 seconds each to extract on FreeBSD 10.3, where as it only took 1 to 2 seconds each on FreeBSD 10.2.
I've noticed this on all jails that I've upgraded to 10.3 and/or created from scratch using 10.3.
Any ideas what would be causing this or how to track down the problem?
Thanks for the help.
