hi guys,

i have posted a question a while ago, and now i am coming back once more.

i have now a dual quad core xeon system, running freebsd 7.2 latest
patch level, 64 bit, and 16 gb ram. using the latest nginx-devel.

the OS runs on a ssd, the db is set on a normal drive, and the site
files reside on another ssd.

i had a pretty similar config just instead i was using centos.

the i/o on the main drive (os drive) is constantly at 22 mb/s.

i have disabled nginx logging, and everything has been setup from the
ground. i have no idea why do i get such high i/o, because i have no
other apps that could cause this load.

could you please point me to some direction ? i don't know what to do.
