I just started a mythcommflag on a video, and it is not behaving the same. It's acting more like ppl here would expect with ~3.7MB/s read and 3.5KB/s write. I'll have to wait for a normal automatic job and do these checks.

Yes swap is on the same array, different part. 4G of memory and an E8400 Intel CPU (2 cores). Debian 64bit OS, and self-compiles MythTV-fixes 0.21. For the array 2 each WD Green 2TB drives.
