Guys, Not sure if its Me, but FC2 seems slower to response compared to my old RH9 install. RH9 -> 2.6.3 kernel FC2 -> 2.6.7-mm2 RH9-> ext3 (hda3) FC2-> reiserfs (Hda9) (i know about the 'try to install it closer to the OD, it's faster etc.. but my partition is like that right now.) I also know there _is_ some problems with the 3d being on (dri..) but I'm not sure that's the cause of the problems. I run Gnome-2.6, at times, just changing workspaces can cause temporary hangs, like 1 or 2 seconds. System Load is OK too. Initially I though it was because of processor power, so I jacked up to 1.4G (instead of letting it being dynamic) and still the issue. I thought it could be my HD. hdparm -t /dev/hda got like 28-33MB/s. So that's fair. One thing I've not tried is putting my NLS default codepage as is08859-1. I've compiled into the kernel utf8. (which I've heard can slow things down.) however, I've tried googling for an option to pass to the kernel but I failed to locate that link. Anyone remember? (short of me re-compiling my kernel? Which I should do anyway, since I have to strip out the debug infos from my kernel) ipv6 is already off alias ipv6 /bin/true Kernel is Preempt too, io anticipatory. Anyone? --
