I do this when a periodic files system check of a large partition kicks in |
| 13 |
and I do not want to spend the time waiting for it. |
| 14 |
Other things I like to interrupt are long timeouts, e.g. while some |
| 15 |
program waits for a server to respond, but I do not have an internet |
| 16 |
connection at the moment. I had this problem with an annoyingly large NTP |
| 17 |
timeout (it seems to be much smaller these days), and I wished I could |
| 18 |
have stopped it. |
