well, here it is, it does not really show the I/O activity the old one
shows (it seems like this one only shows throughput)

between 9 and 15 seconds almost nothing seems to happen, almost no
cpu, almost no I/O throughput, only the sound of my harddisk seeking
the whole time, could it be because udev spawns so many children that
want access to the disk simultaneously?
