OTOH, I now notice the 39 write /s .. If that means ~ 39 tps... bummer.
When playing with it a bit more, I couldn't get the test_file to be created in the right place on the test system. It turns out I had the diskchecker config switched and 39 write/s was the speed of the not-rebooted system, sorry.

I did several diskchecker.pl tests this time with the testfile on the SSD, none of the tests have returned an error :-)

Writes/s start low but quickly converge to a number in the range of 1200 to 1800. The writes diskchecker does are 16kB writes. Making this 4kB writes does not increase writes/s. 32kB seems a little less, 64kB is about two third of initial writes/s and 128kB is half.

So no BBU speeds here for writes, but still ~ factor 10 improvement of iops for a rotating SATA disk.

PS: hdparm showed write cache was on. I did tests with both ext2 and xfs, where xfs tests I did with both barrier and nobarrier.
