I am just guessing that the IO scheduler is the problem here. but I am
seeing something I did not see since before the IO scheduler started
being used:
If I am doing things that are relatively IO intensive, like browsing a
page that has dozens of thumkbnails or downloading emails, from time to
time (around every minute, it seems), the HD drive lights up solidly
and although I can move my mouse, the entire app server seems to locks
up (can´t open context menus in racker or even open the Deskbar menu.
Clicking in the deskbar anywhere also does not work. This last for
around 5 to 10 seconds and, then, it suddenly gets back to life.
In case this matters,this is a quad core machine with 3 Gb of memory
available to Haiku (1 Gb is being mapped to the video card memory) so
it is definitelly not lack of CPU or memory.
