I cannot comment for I agree in so much as my point was strictly focused on ordering constraints imposed for consistency reasons. softupdates is not a performance mechanism per se; it is a mechanism to allow async writes of fs data occur in a consistent fashion. Anyways, you can easily resolve this issue by mounting async with softupdates disabled and then repeating the test.Received on Fri Jan 05 2007 - 23:59:43 UTC
