Some problems about iSCSI initiator 2.1.0

["謝志昌(Chih-Chang Hsieh)"]

Dear Andrew,

Thank you for your advice.

We have re-done the tests by

dd if=/dev/zero of=${iSCSI_TARGET_DIR}/bigf bs=1024k count=1000

But it does not make big differences.

The iSCSI target da2 is still much steady than da0 and da1.

The new results are at http://free.cc.kmu.edu.tw/iscsi/iotest.txt

Original results with /dev/random are now at
