I have found a 16MB stripe_cache_size results in optimal performance after testing many many values :)

We have discussed this before, my experience has been that after 8 x stripe size the performance gains hit diminishing returns, particularly for typical write instead of big aligned blocks, possibly with O_DIRECT. I would suggest that as a target even on a low memory machine.

Do your tests show similar? I was only able to test three and four drive setups using dedicated drives.

Definitely a kernel bug, I set it to 64kb and it stayed in D-state until I ran alt-sysrq-b.

Pretty nasty!
