Define "recently". If the system was running fine, and now "recently" it has become slow, what changes were made to the system just before it became slow? You just installed Squeeze on this system 4 days ago. Four days isn't sufficient to say a system _was_ running fine and now is slow. Did you upgrade this box from Lenny to Squeeze 4 days ago? Are you saying it ran fine before the distribution upgrade but afterward it is slow? If you just performed a dist upgrade 4 days ago, that is _extremely_ relevant information, and you should have shared that in your original post. You have made the nubie mistake of offering far too little information about your system details, and more importantly, the system's history. Give us all the details, and we might be able to help. At this point in time, you've provided zero relevant information that would allow us to help solve your problem. If this is a brand new machine/Squeeze install, not an upgrade from Lenny, there are any number of things that could be causing this perceived slow write problem. For instance, a bad/flaky TIM junction between the CPU and heatsink or a defective CPU fan could be causing thermal throttling. If the proper modules aren't installed, you'll never see anything in your logs pointing to this as the cause. Please post complete dmesg output so we can at least get an idea of the hardware specifics of this machine and see what the installed kernel thinks about your hardware. Whatever your problem is it is at a low level, and systemic as it affects shell applications as well as network applications. -- Stan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
