Polar, Given your results below, I decided to test my own. I'm finding much poorer results (So, count your blessings). My laptop results are:
# ./hdparm -acd /dev/hda
/dev/hda: IO_support = 0 (default 16-bit) using_dma = 1 (on) readahead = 8 (on)
# ./hdparm -t /dev/hda
/dev/hda: Timing buffered disk reads: 64 MB in 5.00 seconds = 12.79 MB/sec
My server, rather old dual PII with SCSI disks:
# hdparm -t /dev/sda
/dev/sda: Timing buffered disk reads: 64 MB in 6.33 seconds = 10.11 MB/sec
This is disappointing to say the least, but how can one improve these speeds? Anyone?
