Is this writing to several files sequentially? Or do you mean bonnie++
writes has about 5-7 files open at the same time, and has written about
1G into each? If the latter (or regardless), I'd try increasing the size
of the cache; since you're seeing traffic across the network, I'd
suspect you're thrashing. If you feel like sharing a network dump of the
traffic when the problem occurs (probably not to the list), we could
tell you what it all is.
