Hi,
when using softraid crypto with OpenBSD 4.6-current I never get more
than ~10-11 MB/s disk writing speed even though the disk (WD Raptor 73
GB) itself, without crypto, can do way more.
Uhmmmm...that sounds wear to me. I just copy 70 Gb from a USB SATA HD to
the local partitions under a softraid crypto device and I get 14-16 Mb/s
all the time. Of course I don't expect more from a USB
device
So why don't you write to the softraid device from /dev/zero,
isolating yourself from assumptions about USB or whatever?
one sees the same sort of bottleneck using e.g. bonnie as michael
demonstrates using his ftp transfer.
asking michael to change how he demonstrates this bottleneck is not
productive. if you're so keen on doing it your way you should take the
5-10 minutes to test it and post your results.
