Also, can you retest using dd with different block-sizes?
I can do this, moment..
I know about oflag=direct but I choose to use dd with sync and measure the
total time it takes.
/usr/bin/time -f %E -o ~/$i=chunk.txt bash -c 'dd if=/dev/zero
of=/r1/bigfile bs=1M count=10240; sync'
So I was asked on the mailing list to test dd with various chunk sizes,
here is the length of time it took
to write 10 GiB and sync per each chunk size:
4=chunk.txt:0:25.46
8=chunk.txt:0:25.63
16=chunk.txt:0:25.26
32=chunk.txt:0:25.08
64=chunk.txt:0:25.55
128=chunk.txt:0:25.26
256=chunk.txt:0:24.72
512=chunk.txt:0:24.71
1024=chunk.txt:0:25.40
2048=chunk.txt:0:25.71
4096=chunk.txt:0:27.18
8192=chunk.txt:0:29.00
16384=chunk.txt:0:31.43
32768=chunk.txt:0:50.11
65536=chunk.txt:2:20.80
What do you get with bs=512,1k,2k,4k,8k,16k...
Thanks!

Done testing for now, but I did test with 256k with a 256k chunk and
obviously that got good results, just like 1m with a 1mb chunk, 460-480
MiB/s.
