OK, sorry - I lost track. > Is Giant the only mutex/lock that could be a bottleneck across disks? The only one I can think of that is generic. One would have to do more extensive profiling and diagnosis to try and figure out what is wrong with your system. The only explanation that seems to fit is that it's something to do with your particular hardware (i.e. driver issue), since it's certainly not a problem on general configurations. I know that many people have bad things to say about nforce chipsets, although I dont know if your particular problem has been reported before. Kris
