Subject: NVRAM support
Date: Fri, 10 Feb 2006 10:01:09 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <43EC5655.1060504@web.de> (raw)

Hello,

Does a high speed NVRAM device makes sense for Linux SW RAID? E.g. a PCI 
card that exports battery backed memory.
Could that significantly improve write speed for RAID 5/6 (e.g. via an 
external journal, asynchronous operation and write caching)?

What changes would be required?

Thanks,
Mirko
