It's much better, although ATA request keeps adding more memory all the time when mplayer is playing, but it's now increasing at about 20K/minute which is a huge improvement. Still, I don't understand why it should just continue to grow all of the time. The data rate is about constant. I would expect that it should grow to a size where the data being processed can be accommodated and then stop growing. I don't see it stopping. Thanks for the quick fix. Sorry to have taken so long to test it, but I am at SC2003 in Phoenix for the next two weeks building and running the show network. About 40 10Gig links this year and about 150 100K and 1Gig links this year. I have no idea how many miles of fiber in the convention center, but we start installing it tomorrow morning. We also should be bringing up the OC-192s to the major research nets over the next two days. If any of you are at the show, stop by the NOC and say "Hi". -- R.
