how are write speeds with SCST SRP?
for some kernels and tests tgt writes at >2x the read speed.
Robin,
There is a fundamental difference between regular dd-like reads and
writes: reads are sync, i.e. latency sensitive, but writes are async,
i.e. latency insensitive. You should use O_DIRECT dd writes for the fair
comparison.
