Dear all,
I have installed DRBD 8.3.11 compiled from sources. However the backend
block will freeze if there is high IO load. I use Remus to support high
availability and checkpointing is controlled by remus for each 400ms.
If I check the Iostat I got the idle CPU will decreasing extremely each
checkpointing and when its reach 0% of idle cpu the local backing device
will freeze and damage the replication.

I am also considering drbd optimization but its came with no luck.
Hopefully some one would shared his experience.
