I don't know what could be causing this.
I have lots of stuff running: postgresql, mysql, apache, X (!), netscape, etc.
As I test, I started Staroffice, and the mp3 I was playing did not skip.
I am using XMMS.
BTW, I wouldn't mind having your system :) Nothing should be slow with that
stuff :-) I take it that everything is SCSI?
I have no ideas what could be happening. Perhaps check top.
