I decided to reformat the raid 10 into ext2 to see if there was

here is the test results
please note the WAL files are still on the raid 0 set which is
still in ext3 file system format. these test where run with the
fsync as before. I made sure every thing was the same as with
the first test.
This is opposite to the way I run things. I use ext2 on the WAL and
ext3 on the data. I'd also suggest RAID 10 on the WAL it is mostly
write.
Just out of curiosity: Last time I did research, the word seemed to
be that xfs was better than ext2 or ext3. Is that not true? Why
use ext2/3 at all if xfs is faster for Postgres?
I would like to see the evidence of this. I doubt that it would be
faster than ext2. There is no journaling on ext2.
