@Martin Emrich:

All my (laptop) systems run with the "noatime,nodiratime" parameter ion /etc/fstab for all partitions.

It makes no difference :-(

BTW I registered a blueprint to turn off atime on desktops as this is completely braindead to have this on by default, as even Linus admits. It costs up to 15% hard drive performance and has no use on a desktop system.

More here (unfortunately somebody removed my link to the rant of Linus on the kernel mailing list about this atime madness in the blueprint :-) )
