I've reread multiple times, and I see a difference of 12s, not .12s. ---> real 0m12.645s ---> user 0m0.003s ---> sys 0m0.159s And 12 seconds (elapsed, with 0.159s system) means 12s/5000=2.4ms which could only be explained with the auditing system doing fsync calls on its log files. -- Roberto Ragusa mail at robertoragusa.it -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
