Were you able to get closer to the throughput in non-replicated
configuration when using protocol A instead of C? Using very much
the same params as in your configuration, I see that protocol A
buys me better latency but not any further bandwidth. <br>
<br>
I'm on 500 MB/s for replicating one drbd lun, 1GB/s for two and
the same for three. My underline interconnect is Infiniband/DDR
whose bandwidth is 1900MB/s. These disks can yield 1600 MBs for
drbd read test or write test when the connection is off. So I'm
also hitting some unknown (yet, to me) bottleneck...<br>
