Hi everyone, this may have been discussed before, but since I'm in Central Asia right now and can't access the mailing list archives, I figure I'd ask again:
I have SXCE Build 68 running on my laptop, but the following holds true for previous versions, too: Reading from DVD+R media under OpenSolaris is dead slow. I have tried this with two different laptop optical drives, one OEM el Cheapo drive and a Pioneer DVD drive. To read one DVD+R with 7 files on it, totalling 4247 MB, it takes 2590 s, which equates to a meagre 1.64 MB/s read. Writing, on the other hand, works at maximum media speed just fine. How come reading from DVD media is so slow? I mean we're talking about nearly 44 minutes here. Thanks for any suggestions. Best regards, Hakim -- S. Hakim Hamdani [ML] / Eroteme.org
