Hi,
I ran all tests again and with new version and everything passed even on
raid5 back end, so it's right time to paste here some performance results:
Requirements:
------------
http://okozina.fedorapeople.org/dmcrypt-tests.tar.xz
compiled fio package
Performance tests are based on script in subdirectory 1/ in
http://okozina.fedorapeople.org/dmcrypt-tests.tar.xz
The result tables were aggregated from output of following fio command:
fio --output=log --latency-log=log --bandwidth-log=log \
--name=global --rw=$3 --size=1G --bsrange=1k-128k \
--filename=$1 \
--name=job1 --name=job2 --name=job3 --name=job4 \
--end_fsync=1
$1 - test device
$3 - read/write mode see explanation of TEST NAME column below
HW:
---
2-socket machine Intel(R) Xeon(TM) CPU 3.40GHz (4 logical CPUs, without
HW acceleration for AES!)
4GB RAM
4x SEAGATE ST336753LC (rotational drive)
One disk was used for system data, the rest for testing
Explanation for tables below:
-----------------------------
In column TEST NAME:
- "disk_nocrypt" stands for pure device w/o any encryption in effect
(it's single device or raid5 device using md)
- "zero" stands for encryption over dm-zero target. Basically this test
is trying to measure the performance of dm-crypt core alone.
- "disk" is real device (same as in "disk_nocrypt") with encryption set
up over it.
following suffixes after dash in TABLE NAME column:
(all correspond to permissible values for fio --rw option)
- read = sequential reads
- write = sequential writes
- randread = random reads
- randwrite = random writes
- rw = sequential mixed reads and writes
- randrw = random mixed reads and writes
Any mixed option above has separate line for aggregated READs and WRITEs
operations.
For encryption I used aes-xts-plain64 cipher, but please note that the
machine doesn't provide HW acceleration for AES algorithm.
The column AGGRB_A stands for results with vanilla 3.14
The column AGGRB_B stands for results with all Mikulas's patches applied.
The interesting results are prefixed with "zero-" and "disk-". The
"disk_nocrypt-" results are just for reference to see real limits of HW.
The "zero-" prefixed lines doesn't require to be published multiple
times but it can serve to demonstrate scatter of results even on idling
machine (except for running tests).
The single device tests:
