Re: 3Ware SATA Raid 9550SX Performance - io schedulers
by Simon at 17:30 26/09/07 (Forum::Technical Advice::General)
Now testing with RHEL 5, rather than CentOS 4.5 - in the hope that perhaps kernel 2.6.18 is less prone to the original issue than 2.6.9.

Some LTP disktest runs, with various schedulers. Note how cfq does particularly badly.

3ware driver: 2.26.06.002-2.6.18
sdb is a RAID 1 pair of 250GB Seagates.
