Waited several days to be sure, but gone. I'd expect verify to be mostly reads. A strace of dnf might reveal what it's up to. A sysrq+t would show what everyone is doing including if there's anything else especially busy that's maybe slowing down whatever dnf is up to. It's sufficiently verbose that it will fill up the kernel message buffer, and likely a lot of messages will be dropped, so use journalctl -k rather than dmesg to collect the output from a sysrq+t. -- Chris Murphy _______________________________________________ test mailing list -- test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to test-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
