Same here: real 0m30.015s user 0m0.008s sys 0m0.006s Thanks for posting; I had no idea why my system just hung yesterday on shutdown. I wound up unceremoniously hitting the power switch; I guess I must not have waited the full thirty seconds. [As per the recent FS thread, I don't seem to have experienced any data loss (ext3). I believe I did see some 'deleting orphan inode' and various other messages on the next startup.] Note that my user and sys times seem to be about a third to a fourth of yours, but we see almost the identical ~ 30 second delay. > GĂ©rard Celejar -- mailmin.sourceforge.net - remote access via secure (OpenPGP) email ssuds.sourceforge.net - A Simple Sudoku Solver and Generator
