Hello Renar, Thank you for the suggestion. I tried the configuration changes. They however do not seem to have any effect - the performance seems identical. I also tried all 4 combinations. I checked the documentation on the parameter "dioSmallSeqWriteBatching" and it states that small IOs are considered under 64kb. I've also found a parameter "dioSmallSeqWriteThreshold" but my GPFS version (5.1.9.0) claims that it's an unknown attribute.

Set the diasbleDIO=yes Parameter to DEFAULT and use the ! dioSmallSeqWriteBatching 1 disableDIO 0 And give it a try.

To simulate the issue it is enough to run fio with option direct=1. The performance drop is quite dramatic - 250 MiB/s vs. 2955 MiB/s. We've tried to instruct GPFS to ignore direct IO by using "disableDIO=yes". The directive didn't have any effect. Is there any possibility how to achieve that GPFS would ignore direct IO requests and use caching for everything? -- S přáním pěkného dne / Best regards Mgr.
