There's the classic case of a man who walks into the doctor's office and
says...
"Doctor, every time I do this, it hurts."
Upon which the man raises his hand.
The doctor replies...
"Well quit doing that. And gives him a bill."
Seriously, it's likely that you are busying out the IDE bus. Ripping with
modern ripping programs, runs in a high priority process as well, to avoid
skipping and other problems.
This is much different than say compiling the kernel, where Linux can give
network processes as much time as they need.

|
|
|Hi.
|I have a linux box(A),which is doing NAT and connected to the net via a
|dialup modemm.
|
|The problem is, every time i strip mp3 from the CDROM drive or
|watching VCD,
|the network(NAT) turn very slow.
|
|I don't think its the CPU causing the problem, coz whenever i compiled a
|huge program with suck the CPU 80-90% most of the time, the
|network is still
|ok..
|
|any idea ?
