Post your performance results
I thought it might be interesting to see what kind of performance everyone is getting with IO Meter so that we can compare what we're getting. So I thought we could all post our results in this thread...
Here is the setup:
Intel 1000 Pro GT NIC
Apple airport extreme N Gigabit
Readynas NV+ , 1 GB RAM, 4x seagate 1TB ES.2 in X-Raid
PC is 1.7 GHz P4 with 512 MB ram
Readynas is about 20% full.
When I run iometer with 2048000 sectors and 256kb read/write blocks, I get ~ 23 MB / sec reads and 11 MB/sec writes. Writes seem particularly slow. I have journaling on, full journaliing off, fast CIFS enabled.
Looking in the logs i find it strange how the drives are partitioned:
Jan 29 22:48:40 nas kernel: hdc: hdc1 hdc2 hdc3 <hdc5>
!!!!Jan 29 22:48:40 nas kernel: hde: unknown partition table
Jan 29 22:48:40 nas kernel: hdg: hdg1 hdg2 hdg3 <hdg5>
Jan 29 22:48:40 nas kernel: hdi: hdi1 hdi2 hdi3 <hdi5>
PV /dev/hdc5 VG c lvm2 [682.62 GB / 0 free]
PV /dev/hdc6 VG c lvm2 [246.62 GB / 0 free]
PV /dev/hdg5 VG c lvm2 [929.28 GB / 0 free]
PV /dev/hdi5 VG c lvm2 [929.28 GB / 83.66 GB free]
Any ideas on how to speed up the NAS?
