That *is* very annoying. Basically, writes to that file are buffered, and
it will only write the data to the file in big chunks (kilobytes at
least). Those big chunks might reflect *gigabytes* of data in just a few
dozen lines, and yes, that can mean hours between updates.
Get used to using top/vmstat/dstat... ;)
Glad it worked for you.
