While doing performance tests in this area, I always had a feeling that OS layer (scheduler that flushes OS buffers) had a role to play here, So I use to reboot m/c between tests, ofcourse taking performance data in this fashion is tedious. I think it is good to run tests on m/c with configuration similar to what Jim Nasby mentioned in his below mail. With Regards, Amit Kapila.
