Hi all, After setting up our new server (Intel Q9550 CPU, 8GB RAM, 4 x ST31000340NS) i did a bonnie++ benchmark on the zfs raidz that i created on 4 partitions on the 4 disks.

In fact, i have never before seen that low numbers in a bonnie test. Using a single disk with UFS yields about 6 times as much. I know that this is not crucial for a normal file server, but i want to rule out any configuration errors. Is this normal for ZFS?. Disks are accessed using ahci. I did not attempt any tuning yet. BTW: Running OpenSolaris on the same hardware yields 110306 for per-char-write and 94698 for per-char-read. --Heinrich Heinrich Rebehn University of Bremen Physics / Electrical and Electronics Engineering - Department of Telecommunications - Phone : +49/421/218-62394 Fax : -3341 _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
