Bug Description
Here is the result of the hdparm test on my laptop (Toshiba M40x-119)
/dev/sda:
Timing cached reads: 1226 MB in 2.00 seconds = 612.38 MB/sec
Timing buffered disk reads: 84 MB in 3.05 seconds = 27.54 MB/sec
Buffered disk access is the same, no problem. But cached reads were
~1500 MB/sec on my laptop with breezy,dapper,edgy. The system is slow especially
slow for example when building a dvd iso for backup, which I never experienced
with the previous versions of ubuntu.
Exactly the same problem is mentioned

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug. Unfortunately we can't fix it, because your description doesn't yet have enough information.
Please include the following additional information, if you have not already done so (please pay attention to lspci's additional options), as required by the Ubuntu Kernel Team:
1. Please include the output of the command "uname -a" in your next response. It should be one, long line of text which includes the exact kernel version you're running, as well as the CPU architecture.
2. Please run the command "dmesg > dmesg.log" and attach the resulting file "dmesg.log" to this bug report.
3. Please run the command "lspci -vvnn > lspci-vvnn.log" and attach the resulting file "lspci-vvnn.log" to this bug report.
For your reference, the full description of procedures for kernel-related bug reports is available at [WWW] http:// wiki.ubuntu. com/DebuggingKe rnelProblems . Thanks in advance!
