Everytime i run bitcoind/Bitcoin-Qt (on linux) - it stucks my hdd during all synchronization. I couldnt even surf web pages commonly.

So when i modified my Bitcoin shortcut to run Bitcoin-Qt with ionice - it runs much smoother now:

Quote
/usr/bin/ionice -c idle /path/to/bitcoin-qt
Quote
/usr/bin/ionice -c idle /path/to/bitcoind

I can do regular work with complex tasks now during all bitcoin startup sync process.

Thanks! I've been having that problem myself but it hadn't been big enough to be worth investigating myself. Trying it out now.

Shire Silver, a better bullion that fits in your wallet. Get some, now accepting bitcoin!
