I've been tuning the 128 thread large file streaming writes, and found some easy optimizations. While I'm fixing up these patches, could you please do a streaming O_DIRECT write test run for me? I think buffered writeback in general has some problems right now on high end arrays. On my box 2.6.31-rc5 streaming buffered write with xfs only got at 200MB/s (with the 128 thread ffsb workload). Buffered btrfs goes at 175MB/s. O_DIRECT btrfs runs at 390MB/s, while XFS varies a bit between 330MB/s and 250MB/s. I'm using a 1MB write blocksize. -chris -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-btrfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
