| |
I just downloaded the Linux gazette, all of the targz files at the lg ftp site, and proceeded to untar them. It is taking forever for EACH file to untar. When I say each file, I don't mean each tarball, but rather each file IN the tarball.
I just thought I'd post this since I remember seeing somehting about slow tar speed somewhere before too.
Other than this one slow thing, 2.2.0 *FLIES* on my machine, everything works fairly well, and is much more responsive IMHO. Good work everyone!
