The performance is *much* better on ATS. It really depends on your traffic patterns to determine how much better it will be. Also, the CPU usage is much lower on ATS.
Some groups use RAID10 for ease of operation, but performance will be less then using the disk devices directly. You can email internal mailing lists and I will give you more details. Don't compile your own version of ATS and use the packages on dist. -Bryan On Nov 8, 2013, at 1:31 AM, Karthick S <karthick.n...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi Team, > > I would like to know few performance related information.
