Soft-updates feedback

[Alex Povolotsky]

About a week ago, I've posted a message here and didn't got positive replies.

The problem is:

when I use soft-updates on IDE disks (disk on primary master, disk on 
secondary master, CD on primary slave), any active disk-using program 
(starting Netscape, starting EXMH) causes all other programs literally to stop 
for several seconds (well, 20-30 seconds is quite often!). Turning 
soft-updates off causes this nastiness to disappear, but also slows down 
disk-active processess.

Alex.
