can i see a dmesg as well? if you're running the machine as an amd64,
can you try it again as an i386?

Sorry. I agree.
where are you creating this 50G partitiong? in the installer, or in
the installed operating system? what command did you use?
In the installer.
how long did it actually take? "a really long time" could be 5
seconds if you're expectations are too high.
More than 2 minutes, for sure!. Perhaps, more.
that does seem excessive. can you watch the interrupt rates in the
top right of "systat vm 1" and let me know what numbers you're
seeing?
I did run the same command again. Only this time I used
tar xzf ports.tar.gz
Look at the times:
# date;tar xzf ports.tar.gz;date
Wed Feb 14 10:59:34 BRT 2007
Wed Feb 14 11:11:04 BRT 2007
The total number of interrupts ranged from 270 to 850, most of it
being mpi0 (170 out of 271 and 747 out of 850). It always showed
100 for clock. If you feel it is important, I can send you the
print screen of the moment these values were shown (off the list
if you prefer).
Thanks a lot in advance.

Jose
