Apparently there is a big difference between measuring with dd or
doing it with disktest. I know the latter is a raw disk test while dd
is testing it in the filesystem level but how come there are such big
differences?

I'm getting 40 MB/s in writes while disktest gets 100 MB/s in writes.

Another question, using RAID 1+0 with iSCSI targets could improve the
writes performance? The iSCSI server has RAID 5 and that makes the
performance really low: 100 MB/s writes 1000 MB/s for reads.

Thanks,

Miguel
