In addition i have 2 Adaptec 29160, each serving at the moment only one Seagate Cheetah disk. Creating with Oracle in parallel 4 datafiles each 1GB i come up with 34 MB/sec. On my previous Gigabyte i440 BX with SCSI U2W onboard using above Linux version and disk layout, i came up with 48 MB/sec. So, where is the problem ? Attached i have the dmesg command output. The only thing i can see is the CPU has inconsistent mtrr settings message. mtrr as a module is activated. Could this be the problem ? During the run of the above creation of the datafiles, i get the expression only cpu at a time works, but i do not know how to prove it. Thanks for any help.
