From: Charles Owens To: bug-followup@FreeBSD.org, cowens@greatbaysoftware.com Cc: Subject: Re: kern/139653: [ata] READ_BIG sluggish ata CD/DVD performance on HP DL360 G5 Date: Wed, 23 Dec 2009 14:15:44 -0500 Hello linimon, In sort, no. Of the symptoms listed in the PR description, very little has changed. Using a 7.1 kernel with r200121 patch added, I think we're not seeing the READ_BIG error message as much (such as during the distro and package install phase) but the most bothersome symptom, sluggish performance, persists. BTW, the first symptom listed (slow loading of kernel) is inaccurate... it actually takes 3:40 between the "loading loader.conf" message and the start of actual kernel boot. -- Charles Owens Great Bay Software, Inc.
