[Bug 328352] Re: mount.ntfs causes 100% CPU (iowait)

Same here on Maverick. In fact it uses 45-50% of CPU, xorg 15-25% and nautilus 15% in total 85-90%. I was copying files for 15 minutes, at one moment I thought that my laptop will melt from the heat. I really don't understand why this bug is marked as Invalid. -- You received this bug notificatio

Same problem here. I have a 500GB USB external drive and wanted to keep it NTFS. I also wanted to copy my full home directory from one computer to the other. I created an ext4 loopback file on the NTFS and started coping. When I reached to VirtualBox image on my home directory it got stuck. Afterw

I've experienced a very similar problem Ubuntu 9.10. copying a large file from ext4 filing system to USB ntfs drive (23GB). mount.ntfs consuming 85-95% + of CPU most of which is %user. iostat 6 100 shows writes at 83/sec or less. It will succeed eventually but will probably take best part of 24

Oh and I forgot to mention that the problem arises ONLY after the mentioned amount of somewhere around 4,4 GB were written. Before that point everything is fine. But as the file grows, the CPU usage suddenly jumps up. -- mount.ntfs causes 100% CPU (iowait) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/328352 Y

I can tell you how to reproduce it easily: It has todo with the filesize. Try to copy a file which is larger than 4.X GB and the CPU usage bumps up to > 90%. I can safely reproduce it. Leech a file (lets say 5 GB) - CPU usage 90%. Stop it - CPU usage normal. Restart it CPU usage 90%. Stop it and

Thanks for the explanation, Szabolcs. I can't remember the exact details now of course, but I do remember that the 'dd' copy from USB to /dev/sda2 had finished when I spotted the CPU monitor showing the I/O wait. I hadn't spotted mount.ntfs in the process list previously, although admittedly I'd

It's impossible to see what NTFS-3G has to do with the problem. Yes, the /dev/sda1 NTFS partition is mounted at /media/WindowsRecovery by NTFS-3G but you were reading from another file system mounted at /media/mobile120 and writing to partition /dev/sda2. The IOWAIT is completely normal when one

Copying is clear enough: "I was copying an NTFS partition image using dd from an external USB hard-drive to /dev/sda2 (after replacing the laptop's internal hard- disk)." E.g. dd if=/media/mobile120/vista.img of=/dev/sda2 The file being copied was 29GB. I mentioned it simply because it might be

It's not clear what you copied from where to where and how. Anyway it looks to be a hardware problem. Check your RAM and disks for bad sectors, e.g. by the utility badblocks. -- mount.ntfs causes 100% CPU (iowait) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/328352 You received this bug notification because
