Subject: [linux-lvm] lvm2 on raid5 speed, not so bad
Date: Thu, 03 Mar 2005 01:16:08 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4226C7C8.10406@theserrs.net> (raw)

Just to share some information...

Here is a "bonnie -s 1024" on a P4 2.4 with 512MB RAM.  The RAID5 is my 
weirdo way of doing multiple RAID5 devices so that I can move things 
around.  All 4 RAID5 meta devices are on the same 5 disks... 300GB SATA 
and (4) 200GB PATA drives.

200.9  0.4

Forgot to mention that the RAID5 devices are 1024k "chunk-size".  
Filesystem is reiserfs.
