So every now and then it takes longer. I noticed that even after the IDL
procedure finished the disk is still busy for while which indicates that
the buffer is being flushed to disk. Another thing is whether DMA/UDMA
is enabled which you can check/set with hdparm. But I think you would
have noticed that already since without DMA the system is awfully slow.

regards,

Bringfried
