Bonnie only has three seekers for the random seek test, which is potentialy very different from a heavily loaded qmail/exim/apache box. Most machines nowdays have a lot of RAM so large testfiles need to be used to minimise cacheing effects (I have allways used -s 1024 but this takes some time :-) -- GeoffB> To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-scsi" in the body of the message
