Here are my testing scripts used in the performance howto:

Here are the scripts that I used for my performance measuring. Use at your own
risk.
They destroy the contents of the partitions involved.
I have put up a new howto text on performance:

=Performance of raids with 2 disks=
I have made some testing of performance of different types of RAIDs,
with 2 disks involved. I have used my own home

Hi All,
My RAID 5 array is running slow.
I've made a lot of test to find out where this issue is laying.
I've come to the conclusion that once the array is created with mdadm
