| |
The journal recovery rangers from slow to really friggin slow under 2.5.66 with definate pauses in disk io stretching for 10s of seconds. This does not happen with 2.5.63 and if I hit ^c on fsck and let the kernel handle the journal recover for all partitions on mountime the recovery under 2.5.66 is either so fast that you don't notice it or just a buttload faster. Very objective measurements of time but the slowness of a journal recover as done by fsck is so noticible it's not funny.
At the time of fsck journal recover or moiunt-time kernel journal recover DMA is turned on the drive.
e2fsprogs 1.27 is in use. (1.27-2 from debian woody)
