Following the extended discussion of system benchmarks here are some actual numbers from a FreeBSD box - if anybody has the time to run similar numbers on linux boxes I will happily collate the data.

2.93 GHz Celeron D, 768 MB ram FreeBSD 6.2

bonnie++ -f 0 -d . -s 3072 -n 10:100000:10:10           

Key:
IDE = 80 GB IDE, soft upodates, atime on
IDE-R1-atime =
300gb raid 1 (mirror) IDE, atime on, soft updates
IDE-R1 = 300gb raid 1 (mirror) IDE, no atime, soft updates
IDE-R1-sync = 300gb raid 1 (mirror) IDE, no atime, sync
IDE-R1-async = 300gb raid 1 (mirror) IDE, no atime, async
SATA-R10 = 1.5TB raid 10 sata on 3ware 9500S-12. no atime, soft updates

v4 = raiserfs v4 from namesys on a 2.4ghz xeon
ext3 = ext3 from namesys on 2.4ghz xeon

Notes:
The 3ware card is somewhat bus limited because it's in a 32bit PCI slot in a 64
bit slot I'd expect better sequential read performance.  This also drives up the
CPU number due to bus contention.

The read numbers for ext3 and raiserfs look suspect

Stripe size for the 3ware raid 10 is 256k

all file sytems were live and had other files on them - virgin file systems may
perform very differently..
 
Conclusion:
ufs2 is pretty similar to ext2 if not a little better but not as fast as raiser4.

sync is a big drag but async makes almost no difference over soft updates.

atime/noatime doesn't make a whole lot of difference on this test.
