Many thanks for the detailed answer :^) Yes, I'm currently using HDD in my main PC and plan to buy SSD, but on my MacBook Air I also noticed a slight delay during Akonadi startup, I think that your script will help me. Apparently it's a disease of Akonadi. >As mentioned, I believe the issue is fragmented IO, as either a few large >and highly fragmented files, or a whole bunch of smaller files that >individually aren't fragmented as they're small, but that happen to be >scattered all over your storage device, but either way, that akonadi >reads into memory as it starts. About fragmentation: in my home directory stored a lot of git projects, which consist of hundreds of thousands small files, I think that they are the cause poor performance of my HDD. Can help me moving git projects to a separate logical partition? ___________________________________________________ This message is from the kde mailing list.
