I moved this thread to -performance as that's entirely what it's about
now and we seem not to care which version of freebsd we'll try out.
Thanks for your comments on this, rather than write you an essay (I
just deleted that) here's the results I've just got from trying this
with vmstat and iostat running at the same time.
They're all running at the same time so it's a pain to read, but it
looks to me like there's only very minimal filesystem activity either
at the end or start of the query run. If that is the slow part then
surely it must be VERY VERY slow for us to get twice the figures on
Linux. (i.e. there's only disk access in the last second, and the rest
of the query takes 4+ seconds to run.)
It could be an issue, it could even be THE issue we have, but I'm not
sure that it looks like it could be responsible for all of it. Also,
note that the CPU is at 100% usage pretty much all the way through,
and Linux still goes twice as fast ? There's got to be something else
wrong. Or hopefully I'm just interpreting the figures (below) wrong.
So, still getting about 15k qps.
Anyway, I'll try and get this all configured properly async, but
mounting async,noatime just sets noatime for me (async is noneffective
and doesn't appear in the mount list) and that's how it was mounted
for the test results below.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] 21 130 # mount
/dev/amrd0s1a on / (ufs, local)
devfs on /dev (devfs, local)
/dev/amrd0s1g on /data (ufs, local, noatime, soft-updates)
/dev/amrd0s1e on /usr (ufs, local, soft-updates)
/dev/amrd0s1f on /var (ufs, local, soft-updates)
Here's even more results then:
