Subject: harddisk speed: 2.4.24 20+% faster then 2.6.3
Date: Fri, 27 Feb 2004 00:04:29 +0000 (UTC) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <c1m1id$u31$1@news.cistron.nl> (raw)
I've been checking, rechecking but cannot explain
why a "vannilla" debian install kernel (sid-testing install
cdrom) is faster then "Feisty Dunnart" on the same hardware.
hardware: Mini-itx with 1Ghz via-C3
200GB udma harddisk.
2.4.24:
Timing buffered disk reads: 150 MB in 3.01 seconds = 49.83 MB/sec
2.6.3 (vanilla):
Timing buffered disk reads: 102 MB in 3.05 seconds = 33.40 MB/sec
2.6.3-mm4:
Timing buffered disk reads: 108 MB in 3.00 seconds = 35.95 MB/sec
Bonnie tests confirm this!
hdparm & bonnie & kern.log for comparison put at: http://dth.net/c3/
Anyone any idea *why* ?
Mayby i'm overlooking something (it's kind of late on this
side of the pond) but still...
Open for feedback.
Danny
