You are right about how awful all this stuff is. Man it seems like you
should use an os that suits your goals a little better. I have heard
that Linux offers awesome performance.
based on the manner in which you routinely complain and provide zero
deliverables, i must say that marco's suggestion is spot on. please join
the ranks of all the rest of the feature-hungry talentless morons and
just give up. if you have not figured out that you are a member of this
group already you need to flash your brain bios so there is some hope of
working around the parts that are obviously not working right.
if you send another whining email about things that have already been
discussed on this list i worry that you will break the misc@openbsd.org
mailserver. don't be that guy.

I notice it for a while now that SVND is incredible slow related to

SPEED. Also I do see a lot of "biowait" with top related to newfs for
example.
vnconfig -cK 8888 -S saltfile /dev/sd0d /dev/svnd1c
disklabel -E svnd1
-> a a
-> r
-> w
-> q
newfs /dev/rsvnd1a
If you've serval houndret GBs that gonna take a loooong time.
Also you can not restore a backup quickly because of the uberproor write
performance (it feels like being slower then PIO 3..).
On the other hand softraid can not handle partitions.
At least it wont do it...
bioctl -c C -l /dev/sd0d softraid0
Heyho "invalid metadata format"..
So what other choices does a OpenBSD user have to encrypt a HDD?
Also: Did nobody else notice that? Don't others use these functions? :-)
And as a side note to softraid:
Also it might be clever to add MORE then 1 softraid device.
Some people might have more then 1 HDD... :-)
Kind regards,
