Steve - we are about to implement the same configuration.
What kind of EMC array?  Have you don't any performance
tuning on the HBA?

Subject: Disk Performance - RH9 vs RHEL ES 3

We are in the process of configuring an EMC array on an RHEL ES 3
machine and are seeing disappointing performance especially when
considering a comparison to what we see from RH9.

The benchmarking tool we're using is Iozone (64K record size with
a 4G file).  The HBA's are QLogic 2300's (2gig).

On RHEL 3, we're using LVM to stripe across two luns and the write
rate is about 79MB/s, and read is about 110MB/s.  Without striping,
the write rate drops to about 45MB/s.

With RH9, writing to a single lun (no striping), the write performance
was about 160MB/s and read was about 100MB/s.  We haven't tried
striping across luns with RH9 (yet).

This has been confirmed at two sites, so I'm curious if anyone else
has seen this or has any tuning suggestions.

Thanks,
Steve
