I can confirm this bug. Running on 64-bit Hardy 8.04 LTS with the latest updates on a Quad Core Q6600 Processor with 4GB of Ram, and 1TB SATA drive.
Un-raring/un-zipping large files or any prolonged Disk I/O such as viewing a directory of many thumbnails in Nautilus will bring my system to a halt, with the mouse either freezing or stuttering until Disk I/O is complete. Used to run older versions of Ubuntu on a much humbler machine and had no such problems. -- Heavy Disk I/O harms desktop responsiveness https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/131094 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
