Running bonnie++ locally. Have formatted / as ext3 and /home/ as ext4.
using raid5. Also to note that when booted with windows server 2003
using Everest disk benchmark it does an average of 34MB/s (peaking to
50MB/s).
Attached are bonnie++ output for the two kernel versions and ext3 and
ext4 (ext4 won't mount with 2.6.26 kernel).
And meminfo for both kernels taken when the system is loaded and unloaded.
