Hi i am back again! |

Unfortunately my problem is still bugging me! |
| 4 |
|
| 5 |
I will give short overview what i have tried so far. |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
1. Trying different I/O Scheduler ( cfq anticipatory and deadline) |
| 8 |
2. Enabling Low latency kernel and Preemptible kernel |
| 9 |
3. Setting 1000 HZ for timer frequency |
| 10 |
4. Tried the new kernel 2.6.19-gentoo-r6 and even the testing version |
| 11 |
2.6.20-gentoo with core 2 enabled in processor type |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
Nothing seems to help. |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
Hdparm also shows me that my disk has |
| 16 |
IO_support = 0 (16-bit) set instead of |
| 17 |
IO_support = 1 (32-bit) |
| 18 |
I can't set it to 32 bit as hdparm can only display settings for sata |
| 19 |
disks but not alter it. |
| 20 |
I tried sdparm and blktool but there seems to be no option for it. |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
As i am using Xfce i installed the diskperf-plugin which monitors disk |
| 23 |
I/O. The monitoring is divided in disk-read and disk-write. |
| 24 |
I recognized that every time when reading stops writing starts. So is |
| 25 |
this staggering of writing to disk normal as the programs have to read |
| 26 |
data they want to write to disk? On my previous machine i didn't |
| 27 |
recognize such a behaviour. |
