[Edwin Lee <912458@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Let me slightly correct myself.  I went one last time and checked how
each drive was hooked in.  On this motherboard, there are 8 SATA ports,
4 are 3G and 4 are 6G.  While both of my drives were hooked to the 6G
side (with 6G cables), they weren't in the -same two- that the other
machines were hooked into.  For kicks, I moved these drives to the exact
same two ports as the other machines, and lo-and-behold, the benchmark
completed successfully, with results matching the other 3 machines.

So I guess the problem statement is why the specific port matters.

Thanks!

Title:
  Disk Utility Crashes on Benchmark

Status in “gnome-disk-utility” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Built 4 identical machines, all work well.  When running benchmarks
  using disk-utility on all four, one machine of the four fails with a
  segfault:

  palimpsest[1796]: segfault at 7fffc8278ff8 ip 00007f33d60dc084 sp
  00007fffc8279000 error 6 in
  libgobject-2.0.so.0.3000.0[7f33d60a6000+4e000]

  The machines are:
  120 GB SSD with Ubuntu partition and swap
  1 TB storage drive
  16 GB memory

  I am running:
  Ubuntu 11.10 64-bit

  gnome-disk-utility:
    Installed: 3.0.2-1ubuntu2
    Candidate: 3.0.2-1ubuntu2

  expected:
  proper benchmark (all four other machines performed essentially identically)

  actually happened:
  program disappeared, checked dmesg and found segfault

  I have checked that all four machines are hooked up similarly (same
  SATA controllers, etc.), and again, only one of the machines fails.
  And it fails consistently (same dmesg response).

  Thanks!
