(2) how is the speed of members ? (3) how do you test that (tools) and how is the cpu utilization during test? (4) it seems that you used partitions of disks as raid members, any other read/write operations on other partitions ? (5) try to set /sys/block/mdX/md/stripe_cache_size larger (6) XOR calculation too slow? ------------------ spren.gm@xxxxxxxxx 2010-01-08 -- 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
