I support Jeff Fortin's suspicion that pdflush might be the culprit. In the first run there were not so many audible hdd clicks. In the second run I had almost constant hdd 5secs clicks. The number of pdflush writes in the second run were 61. That fits perfectly the number of accesses for a 5 minute period. 5mins=300secs. 300secs/5secs = 60
I have 512 MB RAM and 2/3 of the RAM are free. -- hard disk being accessed every 4 sec. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/17878 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
