Jan, thank you very much!
Max Brunning told me about this article, and I read it a year ago. Sorry for not mentioning this earlier. The article is nice, but too short. For example, there no information about ZFS, nothing related to file systems performance, etc. So, this article is a perfect start for those who would like to make their own research. I am looking for the result of the research, because it seems to be a big amount of work, and just repeating it may be huge time wasting...
