I'm installing Altera Quartus, which I have done several times before on this system. But what used to take 15-20 minutes now takes a week.
It happens with the text based installer and the GUI installer. The only process I see running at 100% during this time is:
Code: |
PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND
29359 root 20 0 0 0 0 R 100.0 0.0 433:13.54 kworker/u16:0+flush-252:4
|
The load is not very high either and the response while running interactive tasks is just fine.
Code: |
05:10:40 up 109 days, 7:39, 2 users, load average: 2.85, 2.77, 2.81
|
There are no errors in the kernel log and /proc/mdadm. I have installed the same package on other distros without problems so I don't think the problem is the Quartus installer.
The kernel version is 6.6.13-gentoo.
Update: It's not related to the Quartus installer as it takes more than two minutes to copy a 2.4M PDF file:
Code: |
$ time cp /tmp/time-series-forcasting-10324313.pdf ./documentation/math
real 2m7.088s
user 0m0.000s
sys 0m0.032s
|
Any ideas as of what is causing this behavior and how to fix it? |
