Re: 2.6.8.1-ck4

Yup I think I have a regression here, as well. I remember an older
version of ck exhibited this, but the last one for 2.6.7 did work well
(I think even the one for 2.8.6-rc4 was ok), IIRC. In my case, when
doing a (niced) compile in background, some windows react very slow, ie
Mozilla Thunderbird takes ages to switch trough mails or cliking on an
icon in kde to load up konsole takes about 10seconds or more (shoud come
up <1sec normally).

Using 2.8.6.1-ck4

hmmm, I have tried a number of things, and it seems to be only affected [so far] by heavy NFS use. This was like completely dead. I see that other people are having a hard time w/ CFQ and 2.6.8.1 however all related to swap. I think I will see what I can do w/ 2.6.8.1 and AS.

Now that emerge has finished w/ scanning the portage tree, even though I am reading MP3's from nfs and untar'ing source from NFS all is well.

I can't reboot just now, but soon. Also, right now I am compiling a bunch of updates to Gentoo, and I am experiancing great success. So it could be a regression, but I don't know.

I just tried a couple more things, and am re-scanning w/ emerge, and the behaviour has returned. My rdesktop sessions are as smooth as glass, but anything local is tanking.

thanks,
Joshua
