For servers, probably not a bug. In my case the choice of IO scheduler affected the result of "hdparm -t" significantly. With Deadline I got identical result with NCQ and wihout NCQ. It was only with CFQ when I got worse results with NCQ than without it. What might be the reason CFQ+NCQ gived so much worse throughput with "hdparm -t"? _________________________________________________________________ Express yourself instantly with MSN Messenger!
