Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] USB 2 performance

2015-08-08 Thread bentahyr
From the tests I did, UFS gave good results so I guess ZFS would be ok.
The USB device is used to exchange data with foreign platforms and 
unfortunately ZFS is far away from being the common denominator filesystem wise.

I suspect the fuse layer being the issue, here but won't have the oportunity to 
verify this before September.

Best regards.

I know it's a little off-topic, but have you thought of creating a zpool on
the USB stick and seeing how that goes?

ZFS on Linux works well for removable media, assuming you can sudo zpool
import

PS. I generally end up dd'ing with a block size of 4M to get maximum
throughput.

Oh, I forgot : retry dd with option bs=4096, so that the

The ntfs-3g library is already part of Hipster, only
the fuse interface and fuse itself are missing.

The current bottleneck is the interface between the
vfs and the fuse kernel module for concatenating write
chunks into memory pages.

Thanks for the FAT trick.
I don't remember when the disk used to be NTFS, 1 or 2 years ago. I had to

I'll try to reformat it to NTFS and see how it goes.

I guess it depends which filesystem you are using, but for FAT yes definitely.
Maybe just a matter of block size in this case.
Also make sure that USB2 is actually used, I found Solaris/illumos to fallback 
to USB1 on several occasions.

 Hi,
 
 I always found the performance of USB devices connected to OI behind other OS.
 Is it related to the implementation or is it just me (oi159a) ?
 
 For example, same drive transfer (one big file) is :
 - 8MB/s on OI
 - 45MB/s on Linux/Windows

 Yeah, really, something is wrong with the implementation of FAT/NTFS on 
 OpenIndiana.
 Would a more recent NTFS-3G help ? Currently using 2012.1.15AR.8 from SFE.

 Thanks for the FAT trick.
 I don't remember when the disk used to be NTFS, 1 or 2 years ago. I had to 
 reformat it for compatibility issues with shiny hardware I don't manage.
 
 I'll try to reformat it to NTFS and see how it goes.
 
 Best regards.

 I guess it depends which filesystem you are using, but for FAT yes definitely.
 Maybe just a matter of block size in this case.
 Also make sure that USB2 is actually used, I found Solaris/illumos to 
 fallback to USB1 on several occasions.

  Objet: [OpenIndiana-discuss] USB 2 performance
  
  Hi,
  
  I always found the performance of USB devices connected to OI behind other 
  OS.
  Is it related to the implementation or is it just me (oi159a) ?
  
  For example, same drive transfer (one big file) is :
  - 8MB/s on OI
  - 45MB/s on Linux/Windows
