But an scp would indicate disk latency as well. It's great they all talk 1gb but can they handle 1gb? As Clive mentioned, try scp'ing a 100mb file and see if you are also getting 8mb/sec. -----Original Message----- From: drbd-user-bounces at lists.linbit.com [mailto:drbd-user-bounces at lists.linbit.com] On Behalf Of Monty Taylor Sent: Tuesday, August 08, 2006 4:12 PM To: Vampire D Cc: drbd-user at lists.linbit.com Subject: Re: [DRBD-user] sync rate seems low I agree, that's what it seems like. But then I ran iperf on the interface and got this: [ 3] local 192.168.0.2 port 32810 connected with 192.168.0.1 port 5001 [ ID] Interval Transfer Bandwidth [ 3] 0.0-10.0 sec 1.08 GBytes 929 Mbits/sec Which is more like what I'd expect to see. On the interface. So why is DRBD only seeing 100M while the interface can support and is running at 1G? Thanks!
