Thanks - I ran that on the 8 gig disk I use for Mandrake, first with
8.0, then 7.1. Mandrake 8.0 scored higher than 7.1 - so, it looks like disk
i/o is not the cause of the dramatic slowdown (going from 7.1 to 8.0),
I'm sure we will all appreciate any efforts to speed up the disk access
nevertheless.
