Not to 100%, so this means the server is always starving. It is waiting on
something -- of couse not lock. That's why I think there is some problem on
network communication. Another suspect will be the write - I knwo NTFS
system will issue an internal log when extending a file. To remove the
second suspect, I will try to hack the source to do a "fake" write ...
