Hey, i have only recently installed POL because i wanted to test the performance of a game(Dota 2), i have everything done, i install the game through a backup and after around 1gig of extra files from the internet my steam goes on to verify the game files but the disk usage is low and very low at times, it goes from a max of 50MB/s to 50KB/s, my disk usage in linux/ubuntu in steam has been around 120MB/s, is there a way to fix this? I also cant change the system priority on anything i have launched through POL or POl itself, i assume it is "bash" in system monitor. Help

I think that this can happen with POL is writting a lot of reports in the log files. You may try to disable this, first have a look to the size of the files (you can delete these, in order to see how speed they grow).
