Hi.

Thanks for the tip, downgrading pkg to 1.10.5 through its git repo did the trick.

Just as a reference to someone who might be trying the same thing, as i was looking for ways to verify that the kernel HZ were indeed set to 1000
I found that # getconf CLK_TCK always reports 128 regardless of the actual setting, and the proper way to verify it is with # sysctl kern.hz
Also it turns out that I didn't have to recompile the kernel (i got this assumption from linux) and all I had to do was to add the line kern.hz="###" in /boot/loader.conf


I found about the kern.hz variable here
https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2011-August/232638.html

and about the loader.conf line here
https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2009-September/205518.html


Again thx for the help, I will be posting the results of whether or not it made any difference in my setup when i get around to testing it.


P.s.: adding a line to the build instructions saying that pkg version 1.10.x  is required, should prevent anyone else form stumbling on this issue for as long as it isn't fixed.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to how to solve this?

I'm just looking for some directions before i just start reading the entire compile script, I'm still new at this, but i would eventually figure it out...(i think :)) )

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks.

Hi,

I wanted to try out a 1000hz kernel to go with the traffic shaper, to see if  i could get rid of the 10ms spikes im currently seeing under full load, this is a 12mb/1mb adsl line shaped to 10mb/500kb.

On the step dvd after complaining that it failed to install a package : Failed to install the following 1 package(s): ./.pkg/All/opnsense-19.7.r1_9.txz
the build stops with the message: *** Error code 70

I followed the build steps on: https://github.com/opnsense/tools/tree/master
This was on a fresh install of the FreeBSD-11.2-RELEASE-amd64-disc1.iso with 5G of ram and UFS on a 30GB hard disk on a proxmox vm (kvm)

I was building it with the line: options HZ=1000 added to: /usr/tools/config/19.7/SMP I tried it with the line commented out,  and also tried building from a tagged version as suggested here: https://forum.opnsense.org/index.php?
topic=5213.msg21241#msg21241 , but it still gave me the same message.
