Here's a performance measurement of my hard drive. I don't know if the values are normal as I don't have anything to compare it to:
/dev/sda: Timing cached reads: 1670 MB in 2.00 seconds = 835.11 MB/sec Timing buffered disk reads: 114 MB in 3.00 seconds = 37.96 MB/sec -- Hard disk I/O randomly freezes when hald is running and optical drive is empty https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/84603 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
