FYI, I just tried it with direct lun. it is as bad or worse. I dont know about that sg io vs qemu initiator, but here is the results.

Is direct LUN using the QEMU iSCSI initiator, or SG_IO, and if so is it using /dev/sg or has that been fixed? SG_IO is definitely not going to be the fastest, especially with /dev/sg.
