Hi,

You said that you have multiple systems running this same application.
But, do they work with the same data on disk or are there big differences?

>From how I understand the figures below, your buff/cache seems a bit low
if you read a lot of data from disk. If you read a lot of data and
filesystem caches are slow, it will result in heavy reading from disk
directly.

One more thing comes to mind: is your hardware behaving fine? I mean, if
your storag has difficulties to read data from disk due to hardware
issues, this could also lead to such problems you're facing.

Regards,
Simon
