Hello
I gave 2.4.0-test5 a try but am very disapointed with the results:
-------Sequential Output-------- ---Sequential Input-- --Random--
-Per Char- --Block--- -Rewrite-- -Per Char- --Block--- --Seeks---
Machine MB K/sec %CPU K/sec %CPU K/sec %CPU K/sec %CPU K/sec %CPU /sec %CPU
2.2.15 384 5231 95.2 16051 27.3 7557 23.9 5764 95.0 18547 18.3 162.2 2.6
2.4.0-test5 384 1568 27.2 1700 1.9 1084 3.8 2273 41.2 5326 10.5 162.7 4.0
This is on a 2xPII-350 with 128MB and 5 disks (1 IDE, 4 old IBM SCSI disks)
on a Software Raid5.
Do other people get similar results or am I doing something wrong?
Also while playing mp3 and downloading files via serial modem from the
internet, 2.4.0-test5 just locked up with no messages in syslog. The machine
was just dead, it did not answer to any pings.
