High CPU Usage and unresponsiveness

[mrpringle]

Hi,
I have a core 2 duo E6400 processor, with 2GB of PC6400 RAM, and I'm finding that my computer becomes a little unresponsive when performing certain tasks in gentoo.

One of them is when I'm compiling programs using emerge for example. KDE doesn't stop respnding but becomes quite sluggish and slower to respond than normal.
The next scenario is when I download things in firefox, for some reason KDE becomes unresponsive again when I'm saving files in firefox.
Another things (I've just realised) which causes the computer to become sluggish is when I copy large files using cp for example.

From these few things it seems that any hard drive operations cause this high CPU usage and unresponsiveness. Is there any particular reason for this, or a way of fixing it

[bunder]

is DMA on? /etc/init.d/hdparm start
tried renicing portage? (make.conf) PORTAGE_NICENESS=10
ff can be a pig after hours of surfing with multiple tabs... not sure if this fits your case or not.

just a few things i can think of...

cheers

Ok, here is the output:
I've recompiled the kernel lots of times, so I' know the process, but please let me know which modules I need to enable.

Thanks for your help.

Enable PREEMPT (Low latency desktop) and PREEMPT_BKL in the kernel.

[Cyker]

Weird things I noticed:

1) You claim you're using SATA hard disks, but your drivers are being assigned /dev/hdx dev names.
SATA drivers DO NOT have the /dev/hdx designation - They always are /dev/sdx unless you have manually changed the udev configs.
This suggests the drive controllers are using the original BLK_DEV IDE drivers.

2) The dmesg shows your hard disks are being initialised using the original IDE driver AND the newer atalib driver, and they are fighting over who gets to control the drive, but libata looses because the BLK_DEV IDE drivers get loaded first.
Again, this points at your drive controllers using the original BLK_DEV IDE drivers instead of the newer libata drivers.

Are your drives DEFINITELY SATA? If they are, they may be running in an IDE compatibility mode (You can set this in the BIOS, although if you load the right SATA driver in the kernel is should auto-magically switch the controller into AHCI or whatever).

If you have *NO* 40-pin IDE devices in your system, try disabling "ATA/ATAPI/MFM/RLL support (IDE)" and recompiling the kernel.
If you do, then you'll have to selectively disable the right drivers under "Enhanced IDE/MFM/RLL disk/cdrom/tape/floppy support (BLK_DEV_IDE)" to make the libata ones work.

Do NOT replace your kernel when you try this - Add the new one as a second boot option in GRUB, as there is a chance you will make your system unbootable.
At least then, you can fall back on your old known-working kernel if anything bad happens!

In my BIOS I found an option which could be either AHCI or disabled. I set it to AHCI mode and I got the following kernel panic when starting gentoo:

VFS cannot open root device "<NULL>" or unknown_block (3,7)
Please append a correct "root=" boot option.
Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS. Unable to mount root fs on unknown_block (3,7).

On the positive side the drives registered during the hardware initialisation as sata drives.

Another problem is that windows vista failed to boot when the the hard drive was set to AHCI mode.



Any ideas?

Thanks everyone for your help. That seems to have fixed the problem
