Re: Constant disk access in 3.1?

Bruce, I asked the same question a couple of months ago and someone responded 
to me (I am using XFS) saying that with reiser it was happening to people who 
had noatime set on the partition. It's not an "ICE" problem as far as I can 
tell, but it sure is annoying. It happened to me when I upgraded to 3.1 from 
3.0. It's been doing it ever since and I've given up trying to figure out 
why. Maybe someone out there has a fix? I'll sure be glad to help get rid of 
the problem again...

Now that I've said all that. lemme go check on the ICE thing.....
