Syncing a raid1 takes long time for large disks because of the 10MB/sec limit:
Mar 30 10:58:31 imap1 kernel: raid1: raid set md2 not clean; reconstructing mirrors Mar 30 10:58:31 imap1 kernel: raid1: raid set md2 active with 2 out of 2 mirrors Mar 30 10:58:31 imap1 kernel: md: syncing RAID array md2 Mar 30 10:58:31 imap1 kernel: md: minimum _guaranteed_ reconstruction speed: 100 KB/sec/disc. Mar 30 10:58:31 imap1 kernel: md: using maximum available idle IO bandwith (but not more than 10000 KB/sec) for reconstruction. Is it possible to raise this value (without recompiling)? I know about possible performance tradeoffs with other processes, I'm just generally interested.
