Neil & Raiders, I am using Debian 2.4.5 linux(for ARM ). The "resync" speed is about 26M/sec. I have 8*120G HDDs so it takes about 24 hours. I saw some bug fixes and improvement on this topic from http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=100876771508736&w=2 Q1: Can I apply this patch to my 2.4.5 linux? Q2: Which linux2.4.x has this fix? Q3: Neil released 22 + 3 patches a couple of weeks ago. Can I apply these pathes to 2.4.5? Which linux 2.4.x will include these fixes? Q3: The default MAX resync speed is 200M/sec. I am getting about 10 % of this default speed. Could anyone get it? Could I get this average speed when I apply these patches?
