I have some regular directory ~/eftests/tmp, and after a reboot, I often check that it is empty (as I remove its contents before the reboot): from the ~/eftests directory, I do
ypig:~/eftests> ll tmp which corresponds to ls -bF --color -l tmp after alias expansion. The problem is that this operation is (always?) very slow: something like 100 seconds (1 minute and 40 seconds). It has been reproducible for several months. The logs show nothing during this operation. Any idea? I'm thinking of a possible hardware problem (the machine and the disk are 5 years old), but I would have expected some message in the logs in such a case. Is there any way to check? -- Vincent Lefèvre <[email protected]> - Web: <https://www.vinc17.net/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <https://www.vinc17.net/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / AriC project (LIP, ENS-Lyon) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
