I wanted to kill it since it's eating up my cpu however kill and kill -9 don't seem to be doing the trick. I'm running the reiser 3.6.25 file system on a RedHat Advanced Server (2.1) with 2.4.9-3.38smp kernel. It's simply counting the time away as it copies files to disk. I've reniced it to 15. It's also on a raid 5 array and I've modified my min/max speed to 10/50. Performance has improved however the process is still running. Thoughts? thx
