Hi,
on one of the computers I manage, I have seamonkey mail writing data
continuously on the NFS storage.
nethogs shows:
TID PRIO USER DISK READ DISK WRITE SWAPIN IO> COMMAND
8639 be/4 guillaud 0.00 B/s 21.56 M/s 0.00 % 38.51 %
seamonkey -mail
and iftop confirms the io continuously.
I've setup seamonkey to consult the mail server only every 5 mn and
disabled automatic folder compression.
But no change....
Seamonkey is seamonkey-2.21-4.ESR_24.3.0.el6.x86_64.
Thanks for your advices.
Patrick
Patrick, Why did you turn off automatic folder compression?? In doing so, you
have set yourself up for creating a huge inbox folder which will be looking
for more and more space on your HD.
Hi Daniel,
Yes, I know this but I would like to understand what is this continuous disk
access. So I've disabled this automatic compression at this time.
Try File->Empty Trash then File->Compact Folders and see what happens.
This doesn't solve the problem. Since yesterday, I've worked on this problem but
still no solution.
That I know now is:
- The file concerned by this continous write is
.mozilla/seamonkey/aw16q4e9.default/addons.sqlite-journal
- Seamonkey-mail write nearly 10 Mbytes/s in this file.
- the content of the file must be overwriten, as its size doesnt grow.
- a strings command on the file show mainly ocurences of
"https://addons.cdn.mozilla.net/img/uploads/previews/.../xxx.png" URLs.
I've restarted seamonkey with all plugin disabled but it doesn't change and
moreover seamonkey seam to hang now when asking again for this page (about:addons).
As the home is a NFS storage, this client generate an average network load of
100Mbits/s continuously
Patrick
