We are developing real-time graphical simulations that update the scene at 16 hz or higher. One problem we have is that at some definite period in time (of which I do not know) we can "hear" the disk being accessed. We are certain that it is not the software, and we have turned off cron, and some other processes. A "ps -e" outputs the following on a 4D70-GT: PID TTY TIME COMMAND 0 ? 0:00 sched 1 ? 2:32 init 2 ? 0:03 vhand 3 ? 0:00 mhand 4 ? 0:01 bdflush 806 console 0:01 grcond 74 ? 0:00 inetd 122 ttyd1 0:00 getty 43 ? 0:00 syslogd 67 ? 0:00 routed 814 console 0:01 csh 73 ? 0:00 portmap 813 console 7:22 wsh 2361 console 0:00 ps 808 keybd 11:12 news_ser Any ideas? t. p. mugabi-jordan gm systems engineering 1151 crooks road troy, michigan 48084 313-280-6766
