Subject: Yet another disk transfer speed problem
Date: 28 Feb 2002 11:34:47 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1014914087.3274.22.camel@wavelets.mit.edu> (raw)
Hello!
Please CC: me on replies,
Problem: ata disk on secondary controller of PDC20265
gives sub-par performance.
both disks have c3 and d1 set along with X69.
hdparm -tT /dev/hdg:
/dev/hdg:
Timing buffer-cache reads: 128 MB in 0.77 seconds =166.23 MB/sec
Timing buffered disk reads: 64 MB in 3.81 seconds = 16.80 MB/sec
compared to
hdparm -tT /dev/hde:
/dev/hde:
Timing buffer-cache reads: 128 MB in 0.73 seconds =175.34 MB/sec
Timing buffered disk reads: 64 MB in 1.82 seconds = 35.16 MB/sec
Setup:
kernel: 2.4.17
pdc20265 controller on asus a7v motherboard.
kernel config options:
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_PDC202XX=y
CONFIG_PDC202XX_BURST=y
# CONFIG_PDC202XX_FORCE is not set
# CONFIG_BLK_DEV_ATARAID_PDC is not set
similar behavior with redhat 7.2 updated kernel 2.4.9-21
hde: IBM-DTLA-307015, ATA DISK drive
hdg: MAXTOR 6L040J2, ATA DISK drive
Interesting stuff from dmesg:
ide2: BM-DMA at 0x8000-0x8007, BIOS settings: hde:DMA, hdf:pio
ide3: BM-DMA at 0x8008-0x800f, BIOS settings: hdg:DMA, hdh:pio
