It should be worth a try. Try deadline and see if that helps. Lately, CFQ had had a lot of improvements. But those might have not made into the squeeze kernel. BTW, does this issue happen only on heavy load? Or is it triggered also on moderate load? I'm sure the moment when this issue occurs, the machine is completely unresponsive. -- Ritesh Raj Sarraf | http://people.debian.org/~rrs Debian - The Universal Operating System
