--- Comment #16 from Amichai Rothman <amich...@amichais.net> --- I certainly agree - separating business logic from UI threads is the proper design in any case, and should solve the responsiveness problem - but not necessarily the root cause of the long IO pauses themselves. According to https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/174619, 12.5% of disk space is allocated to the MFT by default, and is used to store data only if the rest of the free space is exhausted. For a 131G disk that's about 16G, so it looks like your case is consistent with the theory so far. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
