My entire system stops completely while unpacking large tar files, like when building OpenOffice2.0-devel. Sound goes into a loop with a timeframe of 0.001 seconds, mouse pointer stops responding, everything goes to a halt. This lasts about 0.5 seconds, then it starts working again, and then halts again and so on, until the tarfile is completely uncompressed.
Is this expected behaviour? Is it a broken scheduler? Am I incuding something in the kernel which I shouldn't have?
