Distributions quotes of the week

That COULD be the scheduler. There's so many things it could be. Is the scheduler biased towards throughput, or responsiveness? Under normal circumstances it might not make any difference, until a compile puts the system under heavy load.

My system is a complete pain-in-the-arse on login, and I *think* baloo is the culprit. I don't want the system randomly scanning my hard drives, and baloo seems worse than Mr Clippy! My drives are check-summed up the wazoo, and the last thing I want is some stupid indexer trying to optimise my system for a bunch of apps I don't even know if they exist on my system!

(dm-integrity, raid-5, no hidden disk corruption tricking raid and damaging my data.)

If I hammer my disks that's down to me - my normal working set fits fine into 32GB, but why is my DE knackering my system for 5 minutes and stopping me working ... ???

Cheers,
