I'm suffering from very slow write performance on a Dell PowerEdge 860
with the SAS5/IR controller (mpt driver) running either 6.2-RELEASE or
6.2-STABLE with sources from yesterday. The controller hosts 2 Western
Digital 320GB SATA disks in a RAID1 configuration.
Reads approach 65MB/s however writes appear extremely slow, in the
region of 6-7MB/s with a dd and a blocksize of 1MB all the way down to
about 300KB/s while extracting a ports snapshot.
It was suggested to me that perhaps write caching has been disabled on
the controller however no options exist within the BIOS configuration to
view/adjust *any* caching options.
Has anyone else experienced this issue? If so how did they resolve it?
Also, is there any way to toggle the caching settings from FreeBSD?

Richard Tector

Thank you for the quick reply.
Is there any information I could obtain that would be of use to you in
tracking this one down?
