Comment #22 on issue 168 by yili4593: Excessive hard disk activity every 10-20 minutes http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=168
I've started experiencing this issue as well and it seems to be getting progressivelly worse. Every half-hour or so with Chrome open, my HD goes into a crazy read/write chaos during which time my system is barely usable if at all. This lasts anywhere from 10 seconds to 30 seconds or more. I'm running W7RC with 2GB RAM and a 1.2GHz dual-core low-voltage CPU. The Window Task Manager processes tab shows 2.1 million I/O reads and 2.3 million I/O writes for Chrome (although I am a fairly heavy user). -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
