swap space is indeed on that disk (/dev/hda2), but as I indicated in one of the (many:) previous posts: I've done the same tests from a rescue cd, without any of the partitions mounted, and the results were the same. Also: /dev/hda1 and /dev/hda3 are not showing the same slowdown. When you ran from the rescue, did you check to see if swap was disabled.
In any case, your drive could be bad eventhough no badblocks are detected. There could be an excessive number of retries. -- Jerry Feldman <gaf@blu.org> Boston Linux and Unix user group http://www.blu.org PGP key id:C5061EA9 PGP Key fingerprint:053C 73EC 3AC1 5C44 3E14 9245 FB00 3ED5 C506 1EA9
