Re: tar x cpu bound



Even if tar (and pax, which I also tried) was to use stdio, this would not 
explain being bound by /system/ cpu time.

It must be something in the kernel. Likely vnode/FFS, but maybe at a lower 
level (RAIDframe, scsipi, mfii), that's why I asked up to what level time 
spent in the kernel is attributed to the user process.
