I hate replying to my own post, but some further info on this in that quite a bit of time that the cache.log is reporting that it is validating entries and taking quite a bit of time. Why is it going through this validation procedure and it seems to be taking a great deal of time. Also usually, when this is done, it does it one disk at a time, not all disks at once I thought. Again, any idea's on why this could be happening would be greatly apreciatted.
