Hard disk bottle neck.
Hi guys, I have this problem for years but couldn't find a way to solve it. I have a file server handling large files from 1MByte to 1GByte. Server Info: FreeBSD 6.2 Apache 2.2.9 DELL PowerEdge 1850 2GB RAM (only 184MB is active) 6x300MB SCSI 10K RPM RAID5 Gigabit Ethernet Connection My server can output NO MORE than 60Mbps (read only). The bottle neck is the hard disk. If I use ONE connection to download file from my server, the speed can go up to about 400Mbps. If I let visitors download using multiple connections, the server cannot output more than 60Mbps. My service is similar to rapidshare/megaupload, I am wondering how they configure their servers? If I recall correctly, it doesn't cost much time to read the data from the disk but it does cost a lot of time to seek for the data. Correct me if I am wrong, if I increase the read buffer size, there would be less disk seek (disk access). Let's say the read buffer is 64K, if I increase it to 640K, the disk seek would reduce by 90%. Thus, more data can be read from the hard drive. What should I do now? Any suggestion is appreciated!

Have you also updated your system source tree without doing a full buildworld cycle? If so, chances are that your nVidia driver is built against a different version of the kernel source than the running kernel. Although any differences will be minimal, there is a chance that something changed enough to upset the driver. Failing that, all I can suggest is that you keep an eye on your console and see if the driver emits any messages just before it chokes. Good luck!

Hi Matthew Wojciech Puchar and others, First of all, I'd like to correct one mistyped: - I got 6x300GB SCSI 10K RPM hard drive. - Most of my files are about 100MB, many as big as 1GB. - Caching is not an option. Thanks for the advices but caching is not an option for me as most of my files are about 100MB, many files are as big as 1GB. I tried Lighty a few years ago but it doesn't help. The problem I think is disk seek. If I can reduce disk seek by increasing read buffer, I think problem would be solved. I am thinking of trying Wojciech Puchar method by patching the kernel with the following code: patch /usr/src/sys/sys/param.h #ifndef DFLTPHYS #define DFLTPHYS(1024 * 1024) /* default max raw I/O transfer size */ #endif #ifndef MAXPHYS #define MAXPHYS (1024 * 1024) /* max raw I/O transfer size */ #endif #ifndef MAXDUMPPGS I'll update the result.

RE: Hard disk bottle neck.
Hi Diego, The reason I use RAID5 because I don't want to waste too much space on redundancy whilst taking the advantage of read. Over 99% of disk access are expected to be reading.
