Greg, All:
Results for Solaris 10u8, on ZFS on a 7-drive attached storage array:
bash-3.00# ./test_fsync -f /dbdata/pgdata/test.out
Loops = 10000
Simple write:
8k write 59988.002/second
Compare file sync methods using one write:
open_datasync 8k write 214.125/second
(unavailable: o_direct)
open_sync 8k write 222.155/second
(unavailable: o_direct)
8k write, fdatasync 214.086/second
8k write, fsync 215.035/second
(unavailable: fsync_writethrough)
Compare file sync methods using two writes:
2 open_datasync 8k writes 108.227/second
(unavailable: o_direct)
2 open_sync 8k writes 106.935/second
(unavailable: o_direct)
8k write, 8k write, fdatasync 205.525/second
8k write, 8k write, fsync 210.483/second
(unavailable: fsync_writethrough)
Compare open_sync with different sizes:
open_sync 16k write 211.481/second
2 open_sync 8k writes 106.202/second
Test if fsync on non-write file descriptor is honored:
(If the times are similar, fsync() can sync data written
on a different descriptor.)
8k write, fsync, close 207.499/second
8k write, close, fsync 213.656/second
