Repetitive Hard Drive Seek under IRIX

RE: Repetitive Hard Drive Seek under IRIX

Yeah that's pretty normal on most installations. There are a lot of background daemons that do things like write to syslog, update documentation, index specific things etc.

One of the biggest on my challenge s systems was some daemon that was doing stuff with documentation. It didn't have a direct chkconfig but I eventually surmised a way to turn it off.

This has been two or three years however so my memories a bit fuzzy

Technical problems should be sent my way.
