I was given a dell precision t5400 loaded with 2 x5450's, 16gb of ram, and 2 15k sas drives controlled by a lsi 9650se-8lpml. I am using gentoo that was compiled to use bfs. (non genkernel). I am using the -smp and -bigadv arguments. As of now i am only able to achieve 15k ppd, i have seen lower clocked dual 771 claim to get 28k ppd and im not sure as to what i am doing wrong. At first i thought it was a mistake when i did my gentoo build, so i have tried RHEL 5 and 6 with the same 15k ppd result, and when i used win7 i got a high 14k ppd. Im not sure what it is im doing wrong, its either those that said they were getting 28k ppd were either false or like i said before, Im doing something wrong. Thanks in advance for the help guys.
