That would make sense, as those are the two big I/O eaters. Those numbers are marginally high. What kind of filesystem are you using for /var/snd, and when was the last time you did an fsck on it? I've seen some (particularly ReiserFS) start to generate big latencies after going for awhile without some preening. An fsck will usually restore things. Better yet, use ext4. I've also seen failing hardware (esp. discs and network cards) cause this kind of thing. > When it does affect playout it is often on the order of minutes, not > brief dropouts or anything like that, but minute(s) of silence. Wow -- I've never seen anything even on the order of that. I'd also be looking at network cables and such.
