Nice little machine. I wonder if you'd get some of the bonnie numbers increased if you ran multiple bonnie's in parallel. Even though the sequential throughput is near 100MB/sec, using both CPU cores might push more random IOP's than a single-threaded bonnie can go. This was certainly the case on an UltraSPARC-T1 (1GHz) here -- not known for single-threaded speed, but good multithreaded throughput. I ran three bonnie++'s together, using "-p 3" to initialize a semaphore, and "-y" on the three measurement runs to synchronize their startup.
