diagnose stuttering?

Hello,

there is some strange behaviour of my laptop which makes me think it is ill. It is a kind of stuttering. Don't get me wrong, I can do my work with it normally, but I think my system isn't running perfectly.

Symptoms:

1. Jackd is reporting xruns. They occur quite often. About 50-70 times while playing the guitar for about 30 minutes. Furthermore the 'RT' sign in qjackctl is flashing on and off instantly every 1-2 seconds or so. Of course the realtime options is enabled. The preferences are set such that there is a delay of about 20ms.

2. When executing 'ifconfig eth0 down/up' or changing the network profiles with netcfg2 while moving the mouse, I can notice some mouse cursor stuttering.

3. When watching a youtube video in Firefox it (the video) is often stuttering 0.5-1s at the beginning while noticing harddisk activity ( Flashing LED).

I never cared about the last two points but since I played around with Jack it is starting to bother me.

I don't know if these symptoms are caused by the same problem. But my first thought is that is has something to do with disk access. It seems logical to me that while writing to the harddisk the system has to stay in sleep meanwhile. So I changed to deadline scheduler, but it doesn't really improve the situation. Moreover if disk access would be the reason it would be the same for all the other Jack Notebook users.

Maybe you experienced similiar things or know a solution for this.

Here are some hardware specs:

Notebook Asus M67n
Centrino Pentium M 1,5 Ghz
Harddisk Samsung 160GB ~5400 u/min
2 GB Ram
Ati Radeon Mobility 9700 64MB


And some more system information

Re: diagnose stuttering?

ok, at least Jack is doing better now. Don't know why, I just play around with limits.conf, /etc/pam.d/su and deleted the content of /dev/shm directory.
Now the settings are the same as before, but  I'm getting far less xruns and luckily without these disturbing plopps.
