In this new round of tests I add FreeBSD witch async and OpenBSD (always using the same hardware). FreeBSD is by far, the worst throughput of all (about 50% slower than others) :-? GNU/Linux 2.4.18 with ext2: 56848 K/sec FreeBSD 5.3b7 with default fs: 26347 K/sec FreeBSD 5.3b7 with default fs(async): 26566 K/sec FreeBSD 5.3b7 ata raid0* (two disks): 26131 K/sec FreeBSD 5.3b7 geom stripe* (two disks): 30063 K/sec FreeBSD 5.3b7 geom stripe** (four disks): 31891 K/sec OpenBSD 3.5 UFS fs: 55277 K/sec * Each disk of the raid had a throughput of approx. 15000 K/sec ** Each disk of the raid had a throughput of approx. 7500 K/sec Each disk of the read split the throughput by half.
