Run top and see if something strange is there. No clue what but maybe |
| 44 |
there will be a clue there. May try iotop to see if the drive is a |
| 45 |
bottle neck. If it is, check to make sure the drives are using DMA or |
| 46 |
whatever is fastest for your system. Could even run hdparm -Tt to test |
| 47 |
the drives as well. |

Just throwing out ideas here. |
