Subject: Long IO pauses

Doing 10*bonnie++ and a cp of a 1 gb taking ages (2+h), this interesting
vmstat strace can be produced. Notice the ~28s of almost no i/o
activity.

Setup is ext3 on dm-crypt on loop on RAID5. Kernel 2.6.18, amd64,
cfq io scheduler. Changing the scheduler to deadline leads to the
same result. Seems to be seek bound would be my guess. But
virtually _no_ io for 30s??

Ideas?

Thanks,

Jan
