Hi,

i've got a third setup running with drbd9 right now and i'm wondering 
that performance in this new version of drbd is that slow. I see a lot 
of traffic going on and then suddenly the traffic is slowing down. 
drbdadm show then "congested:yes" on Secondard and "blocker:lower" on 
primary device. the network is a gigabit network and with the same 
servers and drbd8.3 i was able to get at least 80mb/s out of it. When 
the status is like this the performance is near to 2mb/s for arround 2-5 
minutes, then it boosts up for 20sec and slowing down again.
I also tested it with a crosslink connection.

The setup is quit normal and nothing tweaked yet.

Couldn't find the bottleneck.

global_common.conf:
global {
         #usage-count yes;
         # minor-count dialog-refresh disable-ip-verification
         # cmd-timeout-short 5; cmd-timeout-medium 121; cmd-timeout-long 
600;
}

common {
         handlers {
                 # These are EXAMPLE handlers only.
                 # They may have severe implications,
                 # like hard resetting the node under certain 
circumstances.
                 # Be careful when chosing your poison.

               }
       }
}


would be nice if anyone can help me with this issue.

kind regards
