Hello, a few comments on your tests: - Reading from /dev/urandom could be a bottleneck, depending on how that random data is generated. Best to avoid this, if you need random data, try to use a bench tool that can quickly generate dynamic random data. - Writing to ZFS can give all sorts of

Well, testing with a file of zeroes is not a very good benchmark - see the result for OmniOS/CE below: ➜ xci dd if=/dev/zero of=out bs=100 count=1000 1000+0 records in 1000+0 records out 10 bytes transferred in 0.685792 secs (1458168149 bytes/sec) So I decided to switch to

I ran my tests with our dd and also with /usr/pkg/gnu/bin/dd, supposedly the same or similar enough to the one in Centos; there was no significant difference between the two. The fastest figure came on the system disk when it was attached to an IDE controller with ICH6 chipset. about 180MB/sec.

I managed to get mine to about 180MB/sec, host i/o cache didn't make much difference, but I switched to ICH9 chipset and ICH6 SATA controller... Hold on, I just realised my root device is on an IDE controller, not SATA, which must have been the default setting for NetBSD in VirtualBox. I'll check
