It would be good to also test something newer if you're able. Something v5.12-ish would be ideal. It's not clear what, exactly, you're testing here, but it looks like the slowdown is in write activity. A slowdown of that magnitude sounds like the client has stopped doing buffered I/O, but it's hard to say for sure. You may want to run both of these under strace, collecting syscall timing and see if you can narrow down which syscalls are seeing the biggest slowdowns. That may help us narrow down what's happening. Thanks, -- Jeff Layton <jlayton@xxxxxxxxxx>
