FWIW, and at the risk of incurring the wrath of Mr. Leighton et. al. there is a thing called the "TrimSlice" which is shipping, at least to developers. Its a Tegra2 box with some nice specs. http://www.trimslice.com/ Here is some data about disk reads: /dev/sda: Timing cached reads: 476 MB in 2.00 seconds = 237.74 MB/sec Timing buffered disk reads: 66 MB in 3.03 seconds = 21.80 MB/sec Regards, Jeremiah -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
