Hi, Our tests showed that the write packing improved the performance of the write sequential operations: Long write operation: ---------------------- no-packing: 15.8 MB/s packed commands patch (both READ and WRITE packing are enabled): 23.3 MB/s Several parallel write operations (sum of all the write throughputs): --------------------------- no-packing: 17.1 MB/s packed commands patch(both READ and WRITE packing are enabled): 25 MB/s Parallel long read and long write operations (write throughput): ----------------------------------------------------------------- no-packing: 12.2 MB/s packed commands patch (both READ and WRITE packing are enabled): 16.3 MB/s Parallel short read and long write operations (write throughput): ----------------------------------------------------------------- no-packing: 15.4 MB/s packed commands patch (both READ and WRITE packing are enabled): 16.4 MB/s Several Parallel short read and short write operations (sum of all the write throughputs): -------------------------------------------------------------------------- no-packing: 12.5 MB/s packed commands patch (both READ and WRITE packing are enabled): 15.5 MB/s Random read and random write: ------------------------------ I checked the random read and random write IOPs by using the IOZONE application. There was a slight degradation in the read results due to the packing and no improvements in the write results. The results are: IOZONE file size of 100M: no-packing: random read: 4675, random write: 729 packed commands patch (both READ and WRITE packing are enabled): random read: 4557 random write: 723 IOZONE file size of 256M: no-packing: random read: 4632, random write: 744 packed commands patch (both READ and WRITE packing are enabled): random read: 4498, random write: 742 Thanks, Maya Erez Consultant for Qualcomm Innovation Center, Inc.
