Hello Christopher,

Greetings!
I just recently installed a RAID-1 configuration on my file server and move
several 300MB files from /dev/md0 to /dev/md1. I noticed that the copying
operation is very CPU intensive. I popped open another SSH session from my
windows machine and ran top. I noticed that kflushd is taking up 60-70% of
the CPU, and mv was 25-30% of CPU. I'd seen kflushd in the top listing
before but I don't know what it is and why its taking so many CPU cycles.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
AFAIK, this is a kernel daemon that has something to do with memory
management. Things like paging.
Regards...
