I did have a long list of tests to attach here, but using dstat over the
last couple of hours it appears that one of my drives that is connected
via eSATA might be faulty. Until last week when I purchased a new 640GB
I was using it (WD 500GB ext4) as my desktop drive and prior to that as

No, it's not Ubuntu specific and Canonical didn't cause it.
Right now I'm copying between two SATA drives, connected to my PC via
eSATA. So far a lousy 600MB has been copied and I'm already down to
5MB/s and falling.
Here is what I know about the problem:
It affects ALL hardware.

Theodore, thanks for the info.
I don't have a lot of time this morning before work, but I was able to
run one test which illustrates the problem. In the attached dstat
output, I copied 3.4GB between two eSATA HDD. It started off fast (as
usual), but by the time the copy finished the dialog was
Forgot to mention, that dstat is for the destination drive only. I'm
also not seeing as much of a slowdown if I copy from the source to the
internal drive, then to the destination drive.

I took a chance and reinstalled my system with 32 bit 8.10, as

I never got around to reinstalling. Rather than waste any more time on
this, I've moved on to the 8.10 beta. File copying is improved on my
system, but it's still not working reliably.
I've been copying some data (about 30GB for each test) from my local USB

release.
My pci=routeirq helped, but didn't turn out to be everything I hoped
for. I can get away with copying a few GB of files now before the
slowdown sets in, but it's still happening. The pattern is slightly
different with this tweak however, since it seems to be copying fine for
