Disk IO scheduling down the drain again

[Matthew Dillon]

:The subject says it all.
:
:Has anyone lately tried listening to an mp3 stream and extract a large
:tarball?  You're bound to get skipping.
:
:And then there's of course the dual make and mp3 listening case, where you
:see one make process totally run down the other and where the mp3 playing
:becomes more silence than audio.
:
:But that's definitely not my area to work on.

    If you nice +10 the make does the mp3 problem still occur ?
