Hi Marco,
I just updated controller and disks firmware to the latest version
available.
The controller Dell SAS6IR does not have cache.

I tried the latest snapshot and this is the outcome:
# uname -a
OpenBSD test.my.domain 4.6 GENERIC.MP#385 i386
# dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/rsd0d bs=1m count=100
100+0 records in
100+0 records out
104857600 bytes transferred in 10.451 secs (10033167 bytes/sec)

FreeBSD 8 is more or less twice faster.

Regarding the other two issues.
The Intel PRO/1000 QP still does not work.
I can install the amd64 version but then it freezes at boot just after
"softraid0 at root".

Bye
Andrea
