Hello,
I just had the same problem. I switched to XFS about two weeks ago, and all
I've heard out of my hard drive since then is churning and grinding.
Untarring large files is multitudes slower, even a simple emerge --sync
takes extra time. Booting was also much slower. I never measured
throughput, but it was bad enough that a benchmark was not needed to confirm
it. Previously I had been using ext3 with no problems, no hard drive
churning. I switched from xfs to reiser4 today out of frusteration...
Problem solved.
