Hi,<br><br>I have no intention of sending rapidshare any money as wel, I'm open for other suggestions or a howto on how to get that 2Mb on pastbin.<br><br>no solid state drives in my machine.<br>Ordinary harddisks in there.<br>
I don't mind it takes it's time to boot cause it's a backend that rarely is turned off.<br><br>OK it's 250Gb and not 256 see the type of the drive at this link<br><a href="http://www.seagate.com/ww/v/index.jsp?vgnextoid=c2be99f4fa74c010VgnVCM100000dd04090aRCRD&locale=en-US">http://www.seagate.com/ww/v/index.jsp?vgnextoid=c2be99f4fa74c010VgnVCM100000dd04090aRCRD&locale=en-US</a><br>
<br>Furthermore there we're no recordings during the test and I didn't get any further than booting up the living room frontend.<br>The frontend was up and running but doing nothing. No tv shows were viewed during the testing.<br>
<br>fragmentation is really bad<br>I'm starting defrag in screen session right away, this could take awhile<br>Never thought fragmentation would bother me again since I left windows behind me a decade ago.<br>I'll whip up a nice script that keeps an eye on it from the cron.<br>
<br>xfs_db -c frag -r /dev/system/data2<br>actual 100214, ideal 1163, fragmentation factor 98.84%<br><br>the freespace is not much better<br>xfs_db -c freesp -r /dev/system/data2<br> from to extents blocks pct<br>

</div>OK, by my calculation, this is about 87% full. XFS is known to have<br>
issues with filesystems that are approaching full (bad fragmentation,<br>
IIRC).<br>
<br>
xfs_db -c frag -r /dev/whatever/system-data2<br>
xfs_db -c freesp -r /dev/whatever/system-data2<br>
<br>
The first shows fragmentation in the used drive space, and the second<br>
shows the fragmentation in the free drive space (which is more likely<br>
to be the issue at hand).<br>
<br>
Also, it seems that you may be running on SSD drives (I don't remember<br>
any 256GB drives that aren't SSD)? That may somehow be coming into<br>
play. Maybe your 1G+ is data trying to get to your drives and making<br>
it there slower than its coming in?<br>
<br>
I can't download your valgrind logs from rapidshare as it says all the<br>
free downloads are used up, and I'm not gonna send them money :)<br>
