Hi Jonathan,
and thank you for your answer.
I followed the suggestion on the link you purposed but setting
speed_limit_min to 200000 does not change anything. The rsync speed is
always speed=9984K/sec
and
# sysctl dev.raid.speed_limit_min
dev.raid.speed_limit_min = 200000
The sync speed limit seems not to be the problem.
(I received another email that says I'm a moderated member and my email
need to approved...why this?)
Thank you in advance.
Alessandro.

You can adjust the mdadm rebuild rate pretty easily. By default it's
quite slow to avoid causing strain on system resources.

Hi list,
I'm trying on a spare machine dm-integrity with mdadm raid1.
This is an old machine (i7-2600k). I'm using 2x500GB wd caviar black
SATA3.
I'm trying to run some test and see how much performance changes using
dm-integrity.
First I created a raid1 with mdadm and checked the performances and
writing 50G I got 100 MB/s
Then I destroied the md device and on every disk I run:
# integritysetup format --integrity xxhash64 /dev/sdb1
# integritysetup format --integrity xxhash64 /dev/sdc1
During this process the performances was good ~95MB/s.
After this I opened the devices with:
# integritysetup open integrity xxhash64 /dev/sdb1 sdb1
# integritysetup open integrity xxhash64 /dev/sdc1 sdc1
and created the mdadm array with:
# mdadm --create /dev/md10 --level=raid1 --raid-devices=2
/dev/mapper/sdb1 /dev/mapper/sdc1
and reading on /proc/mdstat I got this:
[>....................] resync = 1.1% (4929792/443175424)
finish=677.3min speed=10782K/sec
Why there is so big drop on speed during the sync?
I'm missing something?
I'll need 11 hours to sync 2x500GB hdd? Why so slow?
Before this I tried the same on a newer machine with i7 8700k and 2x2TB
WD gold and I get a drop sync speed at ~35MB/s.
There is something that I can do to improve this?
Thank you in advance.
Alessandro.
