Hi,

some days ago I installed 2.6.1 here and immediately noticed a slower bootup time.
The disk during boot is also very much showing a lot more activity.
And the same when starting up a new program.
Was there a change that explains this?

I just reinstalled 2.6.0 and everything went back to being quite peaceful.

My configuration:
- 2 x 500MHz P-III
- NCR 53c875 SCSI controller
- Preemption enabled
- 512 MB memory

Run "vstat 1" while you're seeing the problem with 2.6.1, and post it here.
