Let me be more specific. I'm am looking for some commands that I could
do benchmarks, raid5 optimization, and I/O optimization on HDD/memory.

The system is busy, there is bacula at night, vmware running
windows2000 with a mail client on there, there is samba (but its not
used except for me). So  the machine is busy enough but I shouldn't
experience these delays. I think my cpu, memory and hdd speeds are
enough for twice the load.

So what commands can I use to figure out what is going on.
