One server is a single drive and a second server has two 300gb velociraptors mirrored on a Dell Perc 5/i.Things are working, but seem pretty slow. I'm getting about 10mb/sec. I was wondering where the bottleneck could be? Is there a way to optimize the NFS service for better throughput? I am accessing over 127.0.0.1Are the server and client coming from the same back-end spindles (I realize this is localhost)? How many spindles are involved? If you are reading/writing to the same disk(s) expect seeking to eat up the vast majority of potential throughput unless you have a total pool of sufficient IOPS. _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos Either way I should be getting higher speeds. I'm getting about over 100MB/s when testing /dev/sda3 with hdparm. Is there a test I can do to eliminate the disks as a bottleneck? Maybe set something up in RAM? Russ |
