Subject: Re: Incredibly poor performance of mdraid-1 with 2 SSD Samsung 840 PRO

Message-ID: <517323DA.5010209@redhost.ro> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <CAH3kUhHxBiqugFQm=PPJNNe9jOdKy0etUjQNsoDz_LJNUCLCCQ@mail.gmail.com>

The previous test was done with "noop" for scheduler (the speed test 
completed at about 8MB/s). Then I rebooted the server and redone the 
test (also with noop) and the result was slightly better but not as it 
should be (21MB/s). A third test 5-10 minute later (after the load 
subsided) completed at 16MB/s.  A fourth test ended with 14.6MB/s.

Something else: the weekly auto raid check started a little time ago and 
it's going at an average of 60MB/s (anywhere between 25 and 100MB/s) 
with noop, cfq and deadline. A raid check with ordinary mechanical 
drives gets done at about 160MB/s on the outer cylinders. Why are these 
SSDs so slow?

These are the result from the 21MB/s test (5 seconds delay):
