Bug1: Maybe im missing something here, why arent reads just as fast as writes?
The cynic in me suggests that the RAID driver has to wait for the
information to be read off the disks, but it doesn't have to wait for the
writes to complete before returning, but I haven't read the code.

I note the same on a 2 way IDE RAID-1 device, with both disks on a separate
bus.

Hello,
Just to let you know, I also see very similar IDE-RAID0 performance
problems:
I have RAID0 with two 30G DiamondMax (Maxtor) ATA-66 drives connected to
a Promise Ultra66 controller.
I am using kernel 2.4.0-test1-

I have seen people complain about simular issues on the kernel mailing
list so maybe there is an actual kernel problem.
What I have always wanted to know but haven't tested yet is to test raid
performance with and without the noatime attribute in /etc/fstab I
think that when Linux reads a file

could you send me your /etc/raidtab? I've tested the performance of 4-disk
RAID0 on SCSI, and it scales perfectly here, as far as hdparm -t goes.
(could you also send the 'hdparm -t /dev/md0' results, do you see a
degradation in those numbers as well?)
it could either be some special thing in yo
