Hi all,
First post, so be gentile.
I need help in determining if I'm attaining decent speeds with a M1015 passed-through to an Openindiana (build 151a8 server) VM on ESXi 5.1 host
The host is as follows:
ASRock 970 EXTREME4, CPU: FX-8320, Memory: 16GB | RAID: 1 X M1015 Flashed IT Firmware (v15)
The Vanilla Openindiana VM is configured as follows:
2 vCPU, 5120MB of RAM.
ZFS raidz pool consisting of 4 1TB drives:
With compression (dedup + compression)
I'm assuming the above is meaningless with compression.
With no compression
I would have expected higher write speeds, any suggestions here would be really helpful on what I can do to increase the write speed?
Thanks
