[arch-general] makechrootpkg and long union unmount time
Hello, When I'm building a package using makechrootpkg and the build fails or I happen to interrupt it, sometimes it gets stuck at the "cleaning up unioned mounts" stage for a very long time (from several seconds up to a few minutes). During this time, the disk shows intense activity. Does this happen to others too? Any idea why this is occurring and how to prevent it?

happen to me too. since 2.6.32 upgrade the cleanup sometimes take even 20 minutes. dmesg shows that aufs crashes

Yeah, it's gotten much worse for me too with the latest kernel, maybe because I'm using ext4 and some recent corrections applied to it had a negative effect on performance [1]. Since it's not just me, I opened a bug report [2] so we can hopefully resolve this annoying behavior. ---- [1] http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=85731 [2] http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/17469
