[Bug 119730] Re: Slow SATA performance

[Thomas Herve]

FWIW, I thought I had the same problem. But using mainstream kernel
didn't change anything. My real problem is that most of my big files are
downloaded via bittorrent, which ends up fragmenting files *a lot*. See
http://trac.transmissionbt.com/ticket/849 in transmission bug tracker
for example. I used shake (http://vleu.net/shake/) to defragment my
disk, and now everything is fast again. I plan to switch to ext4 to see
if the problem goes away for future downloads.
