No. I sometimes mount a disk over the network using Samba, but only to
rsync some data and then unmount it again.

There is no problem with DNS-lookups.

Is your work computer connected to an LDAP for directory information or
joined to an Active Directory via Samba?  Alternately, does your
/etc/resolv.conf specify DNS servers that cannot be reached when you
experience the delay?  Also, what are the contents of /etc/nsswitch.conf
on your system?

Stable without an X11 environment.

On my work laptop when I access /tmp/ for anything it can take up to
more than a minute before I get reaction.  This is not the case of the
other computers.  Example from this morning - after I unzipped a file
to /tmp (which did not take too long and created 8 gzipped files and
two csv-files):

js@sitasie /tmp 10:24:50> chmod 666 WR*.gz
js@sitasie /tmp 10:26:03>

On the work laptop I use /usr/bin/fizsh as $SHELL.
I have no idea what is causing this and how to solve it.

Any help would be appreciated.


No ideas just yet, but some more information might help.
What filesystem is /tmp using (findmnt /tmp)
Does this only apply to chmod operations, or to all file operations 
(creating files, renaming files, deleting files)?
Does this only happen at the shell, or does a graphical file manager 
(e.g. Thunar) suffer similar issues?

Johann.
