Hi All,

Fedora 32
Xfce 4.14

Every so often, once every two weeks or so for no apparent
reason or program, my computer slows down to about 1/5 speed.
Typed letter take time to appear.  File system stuff is five
times slower: tar, dump, etc..

And I can't find anything wrong.  iotop and top both show
hardly anything happening.  Here is a screenshot of atop:

I notice that when I am doing a tar or a dump, my hard drive
light is on solid or constantly flashing.  When the slow
down occurs, it will stay off for a solid five seconds,
the flash a little, and back off again.

And the tar and dumps always come out okay.  They just
take five times longer.

Any words of wisdom?

Many thanks,
-T
