Servus,

i have a serious performance problem with my harddisk.
i am using a Maxtor U/DMA 100 with soft updates enabled

my problem are for example tgz files that contain many small files, i
used the time command to extract the ports collection (13MB as tgz)
and time figured out that the total time was:

13 min and user time less than one second.

In addition to time command i also used top, and tar had a priority of
-6 and status switched between biord and getblk 

the cpu idle time was near 99%...

could anybody help me? Thanks.
M.Bartels
