I personnaly do not use the merge-delay as it is
reported to be experimental. Further more. All my tests
demonstrated worth performances with merge-delay (I also tried
with 0.002 as you did). That said my setup is not perfect and I
don't want to misslead you. I have tried several times to get in
touch with Gabor Gombas who wrote ggaoed... but unfortanately all
my mails remained dead letters. If you're looking for performances maybe you can give vblade a try? (fork process or use bonding for multiple NICs) The first tests I made gave slightly better results with vblade than ggaoed concerning throuput: http://www.horoa.net/files/aoetest I think I used tiobench for thoose tests Le 07/07/2011 17:17, Lars Erik Dangvard Jensen a écrit : # Statistics for device aoestorage1-90-2-2000r6 read_cnt: 5235045 read_bytes: 21442744320 read_time: 9663.53 write_cnt: 0 write_bytes: 0 write_time: 0 other_cnt: 304 other_time: 0.0212562 io_slots: 1117752 io_runs: 96727 queue_length: 786443640 queue_stall: 1753 queue_over: 0 ata_err: 0 proto_err: 0I can get a very low "queue_stall" number by setting "merge-delay = 0.002" in ggaoed.conf, if not setting merge-delay queue_stall is extremely high.And "queue_over" is 0 when setting "queue-length = 1024".

I've checked the physical raid array on the target but this have no errors, and all disks are good. Can merge-delay or queue-length cause ata errors? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ All of the data generated in your IT infrastructure is seriously valuable.
