Probably on friday morning (Italy time) I'll have some time to access
and compare 2 quite identical Dell M610 blades.
One with an up2date 5.5 and another with rh el 6 beta2 + kernel
update. Both x86_64.
These ones are connected to internal storage and also to 10Gbit/s

But don't barriers affect mostly writes? If yes, is it because of the logs
and atime? 80% still looks like too much, maybe it's so bad because of the
virtualized environment?
I have not access to an hardware setup to check it, but I'd suggest to
Also I don't think touching the default filesystem and it's config is a
good thing here. One can always tune things as needed but the defaults

Are you using Ext3 or Ext4 on the RHEL 6 system? Might try to use ext3 and
see if it makes any difference,
I've tried it with ext3 and ext4 and it makes no difference.
Also are these in VMs or bare hardware? and are the two servers the same?

Well, right off, when you listed your hardware, I never assumed it was
virtualized. At the very least, I would want to see this test in a
hypervisor virtualized environment, and even better directly on
hardware.

I'd love to try it and break it down using SystemTap... I just don't
