Dave Chinner put forth on 8/31/2010 7:06 PM: > You're probably CPU bound, not IO bound. 7200 rpm is the highest spindle speed for 2TB drives--5400 is most common. None of them are going to do much over 200 random seeks/second, if that. That's 400 tops for two drives. Using any modern Intel/AMD ~2 GHz CPU, you think he's CPU bound? Apparently this "rm -rf" type operation is much more complex than I previously believed. -- Stan _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@xxxxxxxxxxx http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
