All I can say is that the ThinkPad T520 doesn´t seem the best machine for testing the performance of software. I have seen nothing thats actually been slow on that machine yet. Its not a machine for triggering bottlenecks easily it seems to me. -- Martin 'Helios' Steigerwald - http://www.Lichtvoll.de GPG: 03B0 0D6C 0040 0710 4AFA B82F 991B EAAC A599 84C7 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-btrfs" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
