But, instead of using google to dig up the first and shiniest link, using the popularity gained on /. and blogging, I'd suggest you actually take the time to lean back and read lkml and other lists where the actual responsetimes are shown. When it comes to regards of benchmark quality, I wouldn't call something a "benchmark" when the sk. "benchmark" doesn't document what kernel it is that is being "benchmarked". ( Note for the readers, according to referenced article (by grendel) comments, it was kernel 2.4.3-xfs that was tested, which would put it about 3 years ago. ) Now, if you can show me a throughput vs. latency benchmark during a paralell ( ncpu * 2 ) C++ compile on a memory-strained system (48 Mb RAM or so), where you'd actually measure filesystem performance and not BufferCache performance (that, means "RAM" performance). Of course, any such tests would have to be executed on an atime mounted system, as well as spark a difference between throughput, read, write and sync access.
