replication bloody slow with compression #102

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Create empty volume
2. start replication
3. watch max speed of ~2mpbs

This is on 2 HP workstations with 4 500gb disks on addin PCI sata 
controllers. Both machines on local gigE.

1) What is the speed with no compression?

2) What does top show for cpu usage?

CPU is somewhere between

with compression. Traffic around 2mbps.

Without compression (no -g 6 in ddsnap transmit)

and traffic around 50Mbps. This is mostly data from /dev/urandom.

This may be a disk configuration thing, defering to release 10.
