Hi,

I found a strange behaver on smp system. My system is
approximately 12/9 of 3.0-current running on a GA586DX with
dual P5-133.

% time dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/null bs=1m count=1000
1000+0 records in
1000+0 records out
1048576000 bytes transferred in 10.211286 secs (102687948 bytes/sec)
9.873u 0.299s 0:10.21 99.5%     60+2218k 0+0io 0pf+0w

% time dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/null bs=10m count=100
100+0 records in
100+0 records out
1048576000 bytes transferred in 1.271951 secs (824383984 bytes/sec)
0.977u 0.309s 0:01.29 98.4%     62+20972k 0+0io 0pf+0w

Actually, both consume about 12 seconds, but the case of
bs=1m is not a problem. Problem is the case of bs=10m. Is it
a known problem?

Thanks,

Takuya.
