Re: [Bug-ddrescue] 10KB/sec data recovery rates - possible cause?

Unfortunately it seems that while I have indeed gained a higher average
recovery rate, it still is not bouncing back after the bad sector /
damaged areas, so it's back to the drawing board for me.  I'm not sure
why it did it for the one time that I tried at the start, but it's not
doing it any more :(

I might grab another dying drive and set up some extensive traces in
ddrescue to see what's happening.

Thanks for the help though Antonio, that idea of yours at least did
give me some extra headway :)
