I used tiobench and bonnie when testing performance. The systems sound similar to yours, they are Dell Poweredge 2650, dual Xeon, 5 disk RAID5, 2 GB RAM. I've attached the output from each... For drbd-3.htm here's a key /home1000c - testing disk, drbd, and network /root1000c - testing disk without drbd /home1000c-nonc - testing disk, drbd overhead, but no network The 1000 is the file size and the high speeds on that test were due to the file being smaller than avaailable memory. =) For bonnie.html I can't recall exactly what's what, because it's been a while. DNS2 tests at the bottom were done on single disk, faste network, single P3 machines. "1200 Local 1/2/3" being the same as /root1200c and "1200 Home 1/2/3" being the same as /home2000c from the tiobench key.
