Thanks for all answers! Why do I get better response time when I use small disks in RVA? 3390-3 and 3390-9 disks are emulated the same way (thinking about data spreaded across all physical devices)?
My goal is to have high data troughput rate.. I want to share data to clients (with ftp,nfs,samba..), so (I guess) response time in that case is not so important. I think using 2 RVA could be better (using more channels, controllers), but maybe using software raid is better than LVM, because then I can be sure about using both devices paralell...and response time may be increased too. Am I right? Is it a good idea to use this configuration for swapping purposes (maybe better/faster than ESS)?
