So what i'm going to do next is transfer my /home, the whole MaryAnn

list.
If that doesn't fix it, then its something to do with the graficks.
I have one real clue, some one the openscad list said the preview mode
opened a bunch of gfx buffers it used the preview mode that it didn't do
in final build mode, so I ran some tests on a fairly complex project,
noting that the openscad logging window said a preview was done in a bit
over a second but the final monocolored version took over 9 seconds to
render, giving me an image I could move in 3d space in the preview
window in real time. But that 1.2 second preview render took 30 to 45
seconds to show in\on screen and every update of that image took at
least 45 seconds to register on screen, and during that 45 seconds or
more, openscad was frozen from all other input. That is as close to a
clue as I have, also manifested when any kind of a file requester needs
to be drawn on screen it is subjectto to that same time killing lockup
except it might be as long as 5 minutes before the requestor is drawn on
screen. That raid was built by buster, worded fine for bullseye, but
seems to be a disaster for bookworm, yet an fsck finds nothing wrong.
Those are the clues I have. Nothing obvious and common to all this
contaminates the logs.
I own the whole nearly 1.8T raid10, every byte of it. Why can't I use
it? Instead its holding me for an undefined ransom in time that I at 89
don't have a lot of left.
I assume this is the computer with the Asus PRIME Z370-A II motherboard,
Intel i5-9600K processor, 32 GB RAM, WD Black 2 TB NVMe PCIe 3.0 x4
SSD, a few PCIe x1 SATA III HBA's with many ports, many SATA III SSD's
and/or HDD's, and a few md RAID (?).
Did you connect the /home RAID10 4 @ 1 TB SSD's to one PCIe x1 HBA?
Are your file systems full?
# df /boot / /tmp /home
Do your file systems need defragmenting?
# e4defrag -c /boot / /home
