I did all the test in fedora RC1 ,originally with kernel 2.6.1, but I upgrade it to kernel 2.6.4
I have a partition on my hard disk /dev/hda3, and I mkfs.jfs on it. I created 500,000 files on it and then removed them all. This create process took me about 230 seconds and the remove process took me about 200 seconds. At the second, I wanted to do it again, that is creating 500,000 files and then removing them. But this time with the command 'top' I found there was almoust 100% iowait cpu. So I will take me extrodinariy time to finish it. why? Who konws why? Why at the second time, there is so much iowait time? _______________________________________________ Jfs-discussion mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www-124.ibm.com/developerworks/oss/mailman/listinfo/jfs-discussion
