Re: anyone noticed how copying GBs of data makes any linux distro crawl

This is a CPU scheduler though, does it really fix the I/O problems ?

I seem to remember Con was also working on I/O interactivity at some point, but I was not yet able to find back any materials.

Edit : he is reporting himself the very same problem in http://ck.kolivas.org/german_linux_maga … erview.txt :

It's an IO scheduler, not a CPU scheduler.

How can you be so confident in writing non-sense ?

My bad . Was doing some reading on it which seemed to indicate it was an IO scheduler. Lots of stuff on writing to disk and all.
