Hi

Something I found testing the lastest gplpv drivers just got my attention
again:

Without gplpv drivers, disk throughput is at 27mb/s (r+w).
With gplpv drivers, it reaches 56/45mb/s (r/w).
No surprise, I expected gplpv to be faster than qemu.

These values were measured using PassMark Performance Test 6.0.

What surprises me is the "Disk - Zufallssuche + LS" result:
Witout gplpv it reaches 31mb/s while gplpv drivers only reach 5mb/s.

I've attached the result.
Can someone explain this?

Regards,
  Steffen
