Well, phybs finished.

Obviously 34-sectors offset is bad for phybs. Write requests are NEVER get =
aligned.
I have recreated partition as follows:
kibab-desktop# gpart delete -i 1 ad7
ad7p1 deleted
kibab-desktop# gpart add -t freebsd-ufs -s 10G -b 63 ad7
ad7p1 added
kibab-desktop# gpart show ad7
=3D> 34 2930277101 ad7 GPT (1.4T)
34 29 - free - (15K)
63 20971520 1 freebsd-ufs (10G)
20971583 2909305552 - free - (1.4T)
So, we have ad7p1 which is still misaligned, but if write request will star=
t at offset=3D512, it will be aligned properly.
Let's test as follows:
kibab-desktop# ./phybs -l 4096 -w /dev/ad7p1
count size offset step msec tps kBps
32768 4096 0 16384 1520609 1 86
32768 4096 512 16384 17898 151 7323
32768 4096 1024 16384 1524899 1 85
:-) Aligned writes are 86 times faster than misaligned!!!
