During my presentation at the MUUG meeting I mentioned that I got much better performance for RAID under the 2.6 kernel. I just thought some of you might be interested so this is a draft of a How-To that I was working on. At the very bottom of the document you can see the graph of benchmarks. http://www.langefamily.ca/howto/SlackwareRaidHowTo.html Originally I was trying to see what impact the "chunk-size" parameter had on performance. To that end, the graph compares 3 different machines in a few different configurations. Read the notes just about the graph for a better explanation. The 3 machines used were interesting in that they compared ATA100 vs. SATA, vs. SCSI. -- John Lange
