Just FYI, a run on a Netfinity 5000 with a ServeRAID card and two IBM 8G
LVD disks plugged into a backplane. I can dig up the model if it makes
things more meaningful. mem=16M, runlevel 1, numruns 5.. you know the
drill. AFAICS to me the ServeRAID is LVD as well, which should give us
80Mb/s max theoretical throughput.
Nice low CPU usage, but sad numbers, I'm afraid - about half the
throughput on the 40Mb/s Ultra I have on the box I performed last weeks
marks. I guess the nice chassis and backplane are a plus :-) Plus the
huge 7-inch fans.
I see from the flat progression in read throughput that it does no read
balancing - a pity, isn't it? ;-)
