A quick test with 2 drives in RAID0 yielded average 320MB/sec using HDTune (seems too high for me though)WTH!
Please tell me I'm doing something wrong.
Make raid0 with 6 Hitachi 2TB 3Gbps drives:
Code:# zfs create rack1 c6t5000CCA221D42102d0 c6t5000CCA221D2E20Fd0 c6t5000CCA221DA8BD0d0 c6t5000CCA221DC3FA6d0 c6t5000CCA222C8C6BDd0 c6t5000CCA221DFD972d0 # zfs set primarycache=none rack1
Note: Purposely disable ZFS read cache.
Code:# time dd if=/rack1/1gb.img of=/dev/null bs=1048592000 count=1 0+1 records in 0+1 records out real 0m6.120s user 0m0.001s sys 0m2.027s # time dd if=/rack1/1gb.img of=/dev/null bs=1048592000 count=1 0+1 records in 0+1 records out real 0m6.012s user 0m0.001s sys 0m2.008s # time dd if=/rack1/1gb.img of=/dev/null bs=1048592000 count=1 0+1 records in 0+1 records out real 0m5.904s user 0m0.001s sys 0m1.994s
1GB/6s = ~175MB/s
You're kidding...right?
It should be 500-600MB/s with that many drives.
Please tell me I"m doing something stupid.
Has anyone else done perf testing with these Rackable Systems enclosures yet?
