Hello, Thank you for test advice. FreeBSD: # time tar -xf mysql-m.tgz -O > /dev/null 1.125u 3.007s 0:04.13 99.7% 41+323k 0+0io 0pf+0w # time tar -xf mysql-m.tgz -O > /dev/null 1.194u 3.013s 0:04.22 99.5% 41+321k 1+0io 0pf+0w So the same result twice. BTW It's fast. ------------------------------- Gentoo: # time tar -xf mysql-m.tgz -O > /dev/null real 0m7.586s user 0m0.906s sys 0m1.352s # time tar -xf mysql-m.tgz -O > /dev/null real 0m1.640s user 0m0.833s sys 0m0.808s Seems like a cached. First time 7,5 sec, each next time it takes only 1.6secs. I checked it with the other file and result is the same. Anyway, it's only a few secs difference, so the problem must be with write. Any other hints? :) Thank You, JG _______________________________________________ freebsd-performance@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-performance To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
