Title:
update-mime-database thrashes hard disk
Status in shared-mime-info package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
After upgrading my machines to Trusty, I have noticed that when I
install packages, the disk thrashes very hard while the command
"update-mime-database.real /usr/share/mime" is running. Watching the
disk activity with atop, I see that the process is reading from the
disk at a rate of about 200 KB/sec, and writing at about half that
rate. I can hear the disk head jumping back and forth as fast as
possible.
This didn't happen in the past. Something has changed, and it's not
good.
