No Rahul, but it seems like this is the sort of stuff that any use testing at 
all would find.

Another comment too, when it was done, I did move the .iso, which took several 
minutes at a maximum speed of 3.4 MiB/sec, from / to /usr, which is a 
separate drive on different cables even.  hdparm says the drives are running 
at about 70MiB/second from the surfaces.  So where is that bottleneck that 
took that move down to 5% of the disks abilities?

Equally good question, that.
