Description Reiser 2008-11-20 17:45:32 UTC
Latest working kernel version: -
Earliest failing kernel version: -
Distribution: ArchLinux
Hardware Environment: 
Motherboard:
ASUS P5B-E (Intel ICH8 Controller, Jmicron PATA)
Hard Drive: Seagate ST3400620AS 400Gb SATA2
Proccesor: Core2duo E6300

Software Environment:
ArchLinux i686, kernel 2.6.27.6
Problem Description:
I have a problem with performance when disk busy by I/O operations, example copying files. System becomes VERY slow, but CPU load above ~11%. hdparm detect mode udma6. I tried ext3/reiserfs/xfs filesysems - same results.
It is problem with controller driver? I'm found many topics on linux-forums about this problem on Intel controllers...

Steps to reproduce:
Comment 1 Tejun Heo 2008-11-20 18:40:00 UTC
Please post kernel boot log and can you please describe how the system is slow in more detail?  Also, please run "vmstat 5" while copying a large file and post the result.  Thanks.

Comment 3 Reiser 2008-11-21 07:27:26 UTC
For example, applications run very slow. While copying files firefox starting about 30 seconds vs 5 in rest, navigation in Nautilus delaying about 2-5 seconds.


I copyied file 1.4Gb on one partition:

Even on XFS?
Comment 5 Reiser 2008-11-21 08:07:54 UTC
Yes
Comment 6 Tejun Heo 2008-11-21 09:14:37 UTC
Hmmm... Certain level of slow down is expected but things becoming VERY slow isn't nice.  cc'ing Andrew.  Andrew, I don't have much idea how to proceed here.  Can you help?  Thanks.
Comment 7 Tejun Heo 2008-11-21 09:15:50 UTC
Also, what does "hdparm -t /dev/sda" say?  Can you also post the result of "hdparm -I /dev/sda" and "smartctl -a /dev/sda"?

Comment 9 Tejun Heo 2008-11-21 22:00:52 UTC
Eh.. nothing really stands out ATA-wise.  Andrew, any ideas?
Comment 10 Andrew Morton 2008-11-21 22:13:43 UTC
Nope.

please run a `vmstat 1' trace, then send us 20 or 30 lines from that which 
correspond with the system begin slow.

What makes you think it's slow, anyway?  Have any other kernels run
faster on that machine?  Did you have other machines which seemed
quicker?
Comment 11 Reiser 2008-11-22 04:03:41 UTC
It's then copying files and starting firefox
I'm tryied other kernels (2.6.22 - 2.6.26), even compiled own builds, but nothing changed / No, i have'nt other machines anymore.

System became unresponsible.
While writing big files to disk, it even hard to type "vmstat 1" in the shell.

I think problem in agressive caching to RAM while copying big files
It can seen on this `vmstat 1` output (kernel 2.6.28):
