Hi all,
I have a 3G AM2 quad core CPU... x86_64 centos 5.3
When I am doing backing up to my external USB drive
my system becomes sluggish. Clicking on a thunderbird compose
takes some time to pop up the window. Typeing doesnt keep up etc...
Is there something I can change so this backup doesnt slow my system
down so much? I dont see HOW it can be taking so much CPU.
