Hi Brian,

This corresponds more or less to when I found and killed the renegade 'dctaf'
process and prevented it from being restarted by commenting its action
in the GEMPAK pqact.gempak_decoders pattern-action file (and then
running 'ldmadmin pqactHUP').

I am hopeful that this really is the case.  I am still very concerned
with the 18% iowait being shown by 'iostat'!

Cheers,

Tom
