Why is it such a hard work for the CPU, what does it do? Is it really about calculating something, or has it to do with lock contention, cold caches, cache line bouncing and other "horrible" things so the CPU can't get it's maximum power? I'm really curious to understand that. Maybe there should be an extra SSE4 assembler instruction "rm on XFS" so we can delete files faster? ;-) -- mit freundlichen Grüssen, Michael Monnerie, Ing.
