I tried a binary search of values between the default (1000) and 60000 which resulted in some pretty weird behavior: at values below 26000 the rate (also confirmed via dstat output) stayed low. 2-3MB/s. At 26000 and up, the value jumped more or less instantly to 70-74MB/s. What makes 26000 special? If I set the value to 20000 why do I still get 2-3MB/s actual? -- Jon Nelson <jnelson-linux-raid@xxxxxxxxxxx> - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-raid" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
