Elbandi, It looks like it's trying to use fscache (from the stats) but there's no data. Did you install, configure and enable the cachefilesd daemon? It's the user-space component of fscache. It's the only officially supported fsache backed by Ubuntu, RHEL & SUSE. I'm guessing that's your problem since I don't see any of the bellow lines in your dmesg snippet. [2049099.198234] CacheFiles: Loaded [2049099.541721] FS-Cache: Cache "mycache" added (type cachefiles) [2049099.541727] CacheFiles: File cache on md0 registered - Milosz On Mon, Jun 17, 2013 at 11:47 AM, Elso Andras <elso.andras@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Hi, > > >> 1) In the graphs you attached what am I looking at?
