Choosing A Webhost:

Web hosts can also provide data center space and connectivity to the Internet for servers they do not own to be located in their data center, called colocation. more...

Re: expected disk performance?: msg#00157

Subject: Re: expected disk performance?
Well, I changed the io scheduling on the dom0 to use deadline and got a 30% improvement. I then noticed that the domU was using the noop scheduler, so for kicks I changed that to be deadline as well. Now I'm going about 3 times faster than when I had been this morning. At 6MB/s scap speed over 100Mb ethernet, that's not exactly where I want it, but it's an awful lot better.

Thanks for this suggestion!

It's an adaptec card, and I've seen it push over 25MB/s before I went to xen, so it's not the card.

Try changing the I/O elevator to deadline for dom0 and report back on the thruput. As there is planned tuning work this could change, but for now it may dramatically help.
