Touching a file is very fast, shouldn't be noticed; however, 258 files...? Maybe they are copied to another file? Check the inodes before and after. Backup archive?
I'm not sure, but I don't think just touching those files would cause the physical I/O activity I'm seeing (well, hearing). I think it's actually writing the file with the same data it already contains.
I think you can make certain comparing the inode numbers before and after.
Dunno, maybe new feature.
The "do lots of stupid, redundant, noisy, obnoxious I/O when quitting KMail" feature??
Dunno, I was half joking. Maybe there is some obscure hidden feature that requires that activity or that has that side effect. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
