How did you run your read test?
I did run 100 parallel reader process (dd) top of XFS file system, try
this: for i in `seq 1 100`; do dd of=$i if=/dev/zero bs=64k 2>/dev/null;
done for i in `seq 1 100`; do dd if=$i of=/dev/zero bs=64k 2>/dev/null &
done
and don't forget to set max_sectors_kb below chunk size (eg. 64/128Kb)
/sys/block# for i in sd*; do echo 64 >$i/queue/max_sectors_kb; done
I also set 2048/4096 readahead sectors with blockdev --setra
You need 50-100 reader processes for this issue, I think so. My kernel
version is 2.6.20.3
In one xterm:
for i in `seq 1 100`; do dd of=$i if=/dev/zero bs=64k 2>/dev/null; done
In another:
for i in `seq 1 100`; do dd if=/dev/md3 of=$i.out bs=64k & done
Write and read files top of XFS, not on the block device. $i isn't a typo, you
should write into 100 files and read back by 100 threads in parallel when
done. I've 1Gb of RAM, maybe you should use mem= kernel parameter on boot.
1. for i in `seq 1 100`; do dd of=$i if=/dev/zero bs=1M count=100 2>/dev/null;
done
2. for i in `seq 1 100`; do dd if=$i of=/dev/zero bs=64k 2>/dev/null & done

I use a combination of 4 Silicon Image controllers (SiI) and the Intel 965
chipset. My max_sectors_kb is 128kb, my chunk size is 128kb, why do you
set the max_sectors_kb less than the chunk size? For read-ahead, there
are some good benchmarks by SGI(?) I believe and some others that states
16MB is the best value, over that, you lose on reads/writes or the other,
16MB appears to be optimal for best overall value. Do these values look
good to you, or?
Read 100 files on XFS simultaneously:
