I posted the results of bonnie++ tests two days ago. (fbsd2.txt and obsd.=
txt
at the bottom)

also I did copies of large mpeg files (sequential read) which were a
real pain to process because disks were very slow (as slow as dd tests).

I will do all tests that you need to demostrate the problem, just tell
me which test you want to do.

Now, I'm waiting to S=F8ren. He is the one who can find a bug like this.

Regards.
