HighJinx has joined #arpnetworks Lefty: jdoe: what's that from? dd?
well, nevermind, it's obvious it's from dd
but to a VPS disk? jdoe: yeah, I guess someone was swapping again. Lefty: 1073741824 bytes transferred in 160.664508 secs (6683130 bytes/sec)

1073741824 bytes transferred in 25.782896 secs (41645509 bytes/sec)
on the old-KVM VPS
I wonder if they're both using virtio mercutio: i get slower speeds on the new kvm than old kvm myself
not using virtio jdoe: there may be more people actively banging on it.
or it may be a differently specced machine. -: jdoe hasn't gotten around to doing anything yet mercutio: i think it's just non-virtio sucks with the new kvm
well at least with openbsd
it was stalling something chronic

hmm that's faster than last time Lefty: ya, looks like new-VPS is using PIIX3
I may have up_the_irons change that to virtio mercutio: thing is, dd doesn't show nearly as bad as extracting a tarball
i want to try virtio, but it seems it needs to be set to virtio
xen works automagically with virtio drivers Lefty: ya, in the VM config mercutio: ie you don't need to change the config jdoe: dd is a streaming write, tar is (somewhat) random. Lefty: I can't imagine tar being much more random than a /dev/zero stream mercutio: i found when extracting a tarball it'd just stop for long periods of time
and if you used tmux and tried to open a new shell it'd take like 30seconds+ Lefty: though it is a read/write cycle instead of just pure write mercutio: pciide0 at pci0 dev 1 function 1 "Intel 82371SB IDE" rev 0x00: DMA, channel 0 wired to compatibility, channel 1 wired to compatibility
is that PIIX3?
wd0: 16-sector PIO, LBA48, 20480MB, 41943040 sectors
what!
it's not even dma
no wonder it's slow
wd0(pciide0:0:0): using PIO mode 0, DMA mode 2
hmm..
maybe it is i dunno
i was reading web sites today, and apparently you can get 1tb raptor hard-disks now, 10k rpm
but they're so expensive :( ***: gcw|mbpro has joined #arpnetworks

jdoe: which host was that, that was slow?
mercutio: is that stuff you're looking at on the beta vps?
