I was actually prepared for file deletes to be slow by reading the FAQ,
but interestingly, even though I'm using ext3, deletes even of 2-hour
recordings are quite quick. I think that's just more indication my
issue is related to memory more than drive speed.
I have noticed the key buffering though - it would be nice if every
operation flushed the keyboard buffer when it completed...or maybe just
every operation except moving the 'cursor'. Dunno how that all works in
X though.
Thanks for all the responses - very helpful.
