GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 794954
Total disk read and disk write mismatch
Last modified: 2018-04-04 05:27:37 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.
