Hi! Azureus is famous for its fsync() behavior, which is known extremely slow in reiser4. Please search the mailing-list for previous posts.

If I start a command like "cp <500mb file> dd" within it the system frequently freezes for 1-2 seconds and ent:hda8! uses nearly 100% cpu. This causes the sound output from xmms to be interrupted and my mouse freezes also. If i renice X and xmms to -10 it is okay. > > > >Is this the desired behaviour ? > > > > > > No. > > >Can I do sth. else than renicing all time critical programs ? > > > >My system is a debian amd64 with linux-2.6.16-mm2. > > > > > > How much RAM is available in your system? > If this is much more then 512M, then boot with "mem=512M", and let > us know if this freeze still takes place (to make sure this is because of > unwisely assigned atom_max_size). > > Thanks, > Edward. > > > > >Best Regards > > > >Benni > > > > > > > >
