[Bug 561210] Re: Writing big files to NFS target causes system lock up

[ab]

The large size file transfer mentioned in the original posting sounds
like the problem I'm having, too, but I'm not using NFS, I'm using an
mdadm RAID1 setup. When a large file is copied, only the
dpkg/apt/synaptic packages run slowly. The rest of the system seems to
function well, including text terminals, gdm, and file transfers within
and between non-RAID drives.

I do not remember having this problem with any other Ubuntu flavors and
versions. It started when I setup RAID. If I remove the RAID, or do not
transfer large files when running the package programs, it does not seem
to cause problems.

My machine:
- OS: Ubuntu Linux 10.10
- CPU: Intel Q8200 Core 2 Quad
