i thought raid5 was doing parity calculation when writing ?
difference between rading from failed an intact raid5 is almost twice the
speed (failed is doing 150MB/sec, intact is doing 80MB/sec)

Correct. RAID-5 will not do parity calculation when reading. RAID-5 will
give you availability but it will not give you integrity.

I didn't follow the beginning of this thread, sorry. Is this SCSI?

Ok. Odd.
My first guess would be that it's some master/slave IDE issue - but you
are probably running all your disks as masters (one disk per channel),
right?
Other than that... Well, if the parity information is intact, the disks
would need to skip the parity blocks when the array is read from
sequentially. With a degraded array, the reads are all contiguous on
the disks - this could be a difference perhaps??
What chunk size are you using? And can you try a chunk size that is an
order of magnitude bigger or smaller? (might take some time to test
this out).
For example, if you use a 4k chunksize (I don't think you do, if my last
guess holds), then try 128k. If you are using 64k or above (which,
again, if I am guessing correctly, is probably more like what you're
using), then try 4k.

I had the similar result with IDE drives through hpt374 controller. Still
don't understand why a degraded system has better read performance.

Hi Jakob,
I don't follow your guesses. Why do you think it may be related to chunk
size? Anyway, I'm using 32K.

Because in RAID-5, each disk will hold blocks like:
Disk 0: [parity] [data] [data] [parity]
Disk 1: [data] [parity] [data] [data]
Disk 2: [data] [data] [parity] [data]
So when reading blocks 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, ... from the array, we will do:
Read disk 1 block 0
Read disk 2 block 0
Read disk 0 block 1
Read disk 2 block 1
Read disk 0 block 2
Read disk 1 block 2
Read disk 1 block 3
Read disk 2 block 3
We can do read-ahead, but the access pattern for disk 0 is:
Block 1, block 2, block 4, ...
For disk 1:
Block 0, block 2, block 3, ...
etc...
So we introduce seeks, because of the parity blocks.
Seeking ruins performance.
In a degraded array, the kernel cannot skip the parity blocks, it must
use them for calculating the lost data.
So my guess is, that this "penalty" actually turns out to be an
optimization (if the chunk size is small - eg. the number of seeks
introduced is large). We will do strictly sequential reads on all disks.
So tell me, have I been smoking something, or does this make sense? :)
Even better - measure degraded vs. non-degraded read performance on a
RAID-5 array, first with chunk-size 4k, then 32k, then 128k, and post
the results here ;)

Hi Jakob,
Thanks for your kind explanation. Sounds pretty reasonable. I also have done
some tests on raid5 with 4k and 128k chunk size. The results are as follows:
Access Spec 4K(MBps) 4K-deg(MBps) 128K(MBps)
128K-deg(MBps)
2K Seq Read 23.015089 33.293993 25.415035 32.669278
2K Seq Write 27.363041 30.555328 14.185889 16.087862
64K Seq Read 22.952559 44.414774 26.02711 44.036993
64K Seq Write 25.171833 32.67759 13.97861 15.618126
Some conclusions:
1. "Degraded" raid5 has better (sequential) read/write performances. The
biggest difference is in 64k sequential read, almost doubled.
2. Bigger chunk size makes less difference between non-degraded and degraded
RAID5. This is due to less seek penalty for bigger chunksize raid5 according
to Jakob's theory.
3. Bigger chunk size makes worse write performance. Why? Maybe somebody can
explain this.

I'm going wild-guessing on (3) here...
It could be, that while you are writing your file, a write smaller than
your chunk size is scheduled by the VM (or something - I'm not exactly a
block/VM interaction wizard) - so a 128k parity block is written out.
Some time later, the rest of the parity block is scheduled for writing,
and the same but recalculated 128k parity block is written out once
again.
Neil, or anyone else with more kernel understanding than me, please
comment on that :)
A work-around for this, as I see it, would be to change the RAID-5
driver so that it - during *writing* only - internally works on 512 byte
"sub-chunks" *no*matter* the actual chunk size on the array.
This does not break compatibility with existing RAIDs as I see it - no
additional information is needed in the superblock either. I think this
optimization could be done completely transparently.
I'd love to come up with a patch, but there's a zero likelihood of that
happening before the weekend.
