hi, > I strongly recommend adding a write-intend bitmap > mdadm --grow /dev/md0 --bitmap=internal I did as suggested, but now it feels like performance has dropped to about 1/4th of what it used to be before. since this system is already pretty slow by design, this is quite frustrating. no soft-lockups so far, fortunately. may a new kernel speed things up again? or can --bitmap=internal be undone? (need some time to prepare the upgrade to a new OS release) tnx & cu -- Best regards, Rainer mailto:rfu@xxxxxxxxxx -- 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
