Package: steam Version: 1.0.0.39-2 Severity: important Tags: upstream In some unknown way Steam forces the file system journaling process to go crazy while downloading the game. Iotop reports something like this when it occurs (sda4 mounted as /home):
> 1379 be/3 root 0.00 B/s 54.21 K/s 0.00 % 53.53 % [jbd2/sda4-8] Most likely, this is a bug in the Steam related to disk write buffering. However, it is quite possible that this occurs only with the current debian kernel or something like that. Any other application doesn't cause such disk activity on my system. Please tell me how to diagnose this problem. -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.11-2-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=ru_UA.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=ru_UA.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages steam depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.52 ii libc6 2.17-97 ii libgl1-mesa-dri 9.2.2-1 ii libgl1-mesa-glx 9.2.2-1 ii libstdc++6 4.8.2-1 ii libx11-6 2:1.6.2-1 ii libxau6 1:1.0.8-1 ii libxcb1 1.9.1-3.1 ii libxdmcp6 1:1.1.1-1 ii multiarch-support 2.17-97 ii xterm 297-1 Versions of packages steam recommends: ii zenity 3.8.0-1 steam suggests no packages. -- debconf information: steam/purge: * steam/license: * steam/question: I AGREE -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
