Description roussel.geoffrey 2018-04-03 20:38:58 UTC
On Ubuntu 17.10, official package Gnome version 3.26.0

I found something strange in Gnome system monitor,

i played a full mp3 with vlc, and after this, 
for the vlc process it shows me total disk read of only 24 Kb 
and total write of 28.4 Mb, i guess it should be the opposite.

24 Kb is obviously not enough to read an mp3...
and vlc don't write anything here, just read :/

Or maybe tell me if i'm mistaken, 
i noticed this for qbittorrent also where i only seed(no download) 
with high total disk write and nearly nothing read.
