https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=86471 --- Comment #2 from Markus Königshaus <m.koenigshaus@xxxxxx> --- Hi Theodore, even after a very long wait, the performance remain so low. The performance is also low when you copy files. I have used dd, so I create only reproducible write access. I have now tested the ext3 FS, same result. After some debugging I found out, there is a delay in start_this_handle (look at the timing), with echo 5 > /sys/kernel/debug/jbd/jbd-debug I get: >> before mysqlshutdown: ...

I try to isolate the problem in more detail next week, I would welcome tips and help for my try.
