Sometimes gnome-terminal does heavy disk-reads when I scroll-back the

something similar. This also happens with a newly started
gnome-terminal instance.

Does anyone else see this problem with current builds?

So how much memory do you have in this system?

I'm not seeing this behaviour on b130, but I have 8GB of memory.

I have 4GB. I think that should be enough for a little scroll-back.

What build are you on?

This is on 131.

Do you know for certain that gnome-terminal is responsible for the disk
activity?

I'm not absolutely sure, but when I scroll the terminal for one line it starts loading as hell. But I have a feeling that maybe Evolution is the source of all that...

Have you checked with DTrace or another tool?

No, I don't know how to do that.  Sorry.

Have you checked to see how much free memory top says your system has
whenever you see this behaviour?

I did, yes. IIRC it was something around 2GB. Is the free memory reported by top accurate?
