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.

I agree, although the vast majority of applications don't use O_DIRECT.

Sorry, it isn't about O_DIRECT usage. It's about latency bound or not workload.

anwyay, the direct i/o results were in the email:

  direct i/o dd
   write/read  800/751 MB/s
     dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdc bs=1M count=5000 oflag=direct
     dd of=/dev/null if=/dev/sdc bs=1M count=5000 iflag=direct

I couldn't find a direct i/o option for lmdd.

cheers,
robin
