I did mention that I tried that as well. (but I just re-tried it anyway) |
| 12 |
and it didn't have any changes. |

Out of curiousity, I just tried to copy a file using an xterm (instead |
| 15 |
of using nautilus) from DIsk 2 to disk1 |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
disk2/partition2 - VFAT |
| 18 |
disk1/partition6 - XFS partition (/home) |

Using Nautilus (I don't know of a good way to measure throughput using |
| 34 |
this, so it's basically what I see in the progress bar |
| 35 |
~5min |
| 36 |
gkrellm2 notes transfer rate ~2.0MB/s |

However, doing the same thing to my /tmp directory (ext3 partition) the |
| 40 |
same file copies in ~30secs and w/ ~17MB/s transfer rate. |
