In addition to what Trevor mentions, you may want to have a look at the
uvconfig parameters, as well as the underlying OS kernel parameters,
including file system settings, etc.

I don't really have experience with messing with these params.  I did
increase MFILES to 300 from 12


Also, file system fragmentation may be an issue, depending on how long
it's been since it was looked at and addressed, especially if there is a
lot of reading / writing going on with this file system.

How is your /tmp space, and swap space?  

No issues there.  /tmp is a plenty and swap is never more than 1/2 used

What flavor and versions of  Linux, and UV?

Red Hat 3

This is a process that your run when other users are not on the system,
and possibly have these files open?

Tried both ways.  Last night I got in when no one was on.  I shut down
UV and brought it back up fresh - same results.

You are correct to first suspect file sizing. Depending on how properly,
or imporperly tuned they are, Dynamic files can introduce some overhead.

Just a few ideas off top of the head...

Appreciated - Thanks

Anthony
