Post #6 - 31 secs
I find it hard to believe that #5 and #6 would vary at all, they are essentially the same code. It is possible that #6 was timed first and that caching/buffering allowed #5 to avoid a lot of disk IO.
Edit: Didn't seen Scrutinizer's post before adding this - still worth stating the 5&6 shouldn't vary anywhere near the amount indicated by the testing.

SYNOPSIS
volcheck [-v] [-i secs] [-t secs] pathname
DESCRIPTION

drive.
The default action is to volcheck all checkable media managed by volume management.
OPTIONS
The following options are supported:
-i secs Set the frequency of device checking to secs seconds. The default is 2 seconds. The minimum frequency is 1 second.
-t secs Check the named device(s) for the next secs seconds. The maximum number of seconds allowed is 28800, which is 8 hours. The fre-
quency of checking is specified by -i. There is no default total time.
-v Verbose.
OPERANDS
The following operands are supported:
pathname The path name of a media device.
EXAMPLES
Example 1: A sample of the volcheck command.
The following example
example% volcheck -v /dev/diskette
/dev/diskette has media
asks Volume Management to examine the floppy drive for new media.
The following example
example% volcheck -i 2 -t 600 /dev/diskette1 &
asks Volume Management if there is a floppy in the floppy drive every 2 seconds for 600 seconds (10 minutes).
FILES
/dev/volctl Volume Management control port

WARNINGS
Due to a hardware limitation in many floppy drives, the act of checking for media causes mechanical action in the floppy drive. Continu-
ous polling of the floppy drive will cause the drive to wear out. It is recommended that polling the drive only be performed during periods
of high use.
