This seems like rather low random write performance. My 12-drive array of rotating rust obtains 3708.89 ops/sec. In order to be effective, it seems that a synchronous write log should perform considerably better than the backing store.
Actually, it seems that the options used when testing the SSD do not request synchronous writes so your results are flawed. This is what I get with rotating rust when using identical iozone options to yours:
Children see throughput for 6 random writers = 28567.95 ops/sec Parent sees throughput for 6 random writers = 16274.03 ops/sec Min throughput per process = 4134.08 ops/sec Max throughput per process = 5529.43 ops/sec Avg throughput per process = 4761.33 ops/sec Min xfer = 98038.00 ops Bob -- Bob Friesenhahn bfrie...@simple.dallas.tx.us, http://www.simplesystems.org/users/bfriesen/ GraphicsMagick Maintainer, http://www.GraphicsMagick.org/ _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
