http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=66054#c6 If it's important, then buy better hardware. :) If performance really matters, I'd suggest putting two identical drives on different IDE busses and using RAID to stripe them together. Depending on how much performance you need, you can also consider getting a 3ware card and striping your data across even more drives. -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
