[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index] iSCSI read/write cost differenceI recently did some experiments on iSCSI benchmarking. I used the UNH iSCSi ref18_03 implementation and use a ram based scsi device for iscsi target use. so there is no any disk overhead. I used a linux kernel module to send fixed size read/write requests to iscsi initiator, which eventually will be filled by iscsi target. i use interl pro1000 gigabit nic and intel 470 gigabit switch. and both initiator and target use same type piii 866 pc with 1g ram. now the IOPS result shows that 2k 4k 8k 16k 32k read 1975 1781 1557 1081 767 write 2877 2225 1588 812 533 for small reuqests, read is slower than write, while for large requests, read is faster than write. i redo the experiments on another enviroment, also get similar results. can anybody explain why this happens? thanks a lot. ming
