So this is the interesting data , right ?
1. 3510, RAID-10 using 24 disks from two enclosures, random optimization, 32KB stripe width, write-back, one LUN 1.1 filebench/varmail for 60s a. ZFS on top of LUN, atime=off IO Summary: 490054 ops 8101.6 ops/s, (1246/1247 r/w) 39.9mb/s, 291us cpu/op, 6.1ms latency 2. 3510, 2x (4x RAID-0(3disks)), 32KB stripe width, random optimization, write back. 4 R0 groups are in one enclosure and assigned to primary controller then another 4 R0 groups are in other enclosure and assigned to secondary controller. Then RAID-10 is created with mirror groups between controllers. 24x disks total as in #1. 2.1 filebench/varmail 60s a. ZFS RAID-10, atime=off IO Summary: 379284 ops 6273.4 ops/s, (965/965 r/w) 30.9mb/s, 314us cpu/op, 8.0ms latency Have you tried 1M stripes spacially in case 2 ? -r _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
