Hi,
We optimized performance in patches in january this year :
commit 96e83a2e60857cd5356f99c45f0a0a658f600949
Author: Ronnie Sahlberg <ronniesahlberg@xxxxxxxxx>

ssc: fsync on the final WRITE-FILEMARK
Not for the individual WRITE6 calls.
Add a specific Mode_sense function for SSC devices so we can force the
BUFFERED-MODE in the mode sense data to inidcate that we are doing
buffered writes.

Priuor to this we used to fsync() on every individual write() which
was massively expensive.
Instead it now only calls fsync() once when the file is finished.
Centos6.0 is quite old so it is completely possible that it still uses
a version of tgtd prior to 1.0.24 when this fix was added.
This fix would improve performance by an order of magnitude or more as I recall.
Can you compile and install tgtd from GIT and compare the performance ?
regards
