In this article, we will look at what Disk Usage (DU) is, and how it can get so high (the higher it gets, the slower your computer will run). The reason this happens is because these programs are all fighting for computer resources at the same time.

Why does it happen and how much disk usage is normal?Ī computer that has several programs or processes running in the background may feel “sluggish” or even “hang” until all of those processes complete their assigned task.
