Hi,
The RAID10 performance will be faster, but I'm not sure it will be twice as fast. Generally better performance is related to an increase on the number of spindles. There are also benefits to be derived from the committal regime but there can be a certain amount of trial and error, there are a great many factors that influence the performance of a RAID array - that's why there are a great many books and courses on the subject.
Regards
Dave

Hi all,
I am looking for a quick/short way in awk to check if an associative array has any content.
I know I can split() it to an indexed array and check if the 1st element is set, or cycle through it with something like for( ele in arr ), but I want to avoid that, as I am looking for a shorter... (3 Replies)

X86_ENERGY_PERF_POLICY(8) System Manager's Manual X86_ENERGY_PERF_POLICY(8)
NAME
x86_energy_perf_policy - read or write MSR_IA32_ENERGY_PERF_BIAS
SYNOPSIS
x86_energy_perf_policy [-c cpu] [-v] -r
x86_energy_perf_policy [-c cpu] [-v] 'performance'
x86_energy_perf_policy [-c cpu] [-v] 'normal'
x86_energy_perf_policy [-c cpu] [-v] 'powersave'
x86_energy_perf_policy [-c cpu] [-v] n
DESCRIPTION
x86_energy_perf_policy allows software to convey its policy for the relative importance of performance versus energy savings to the proces-
sor.
The processor uses this information in model-specific ways when it must select trade-offs between performance and energy efficiency.
This policy hint does not supersede Processor Performance states (P-states) or CPU Idle power states (C-states), but allows software to
have influence where it would otherwise be unable to express a preference.
For example, this setting may tell the hardware how aggressively or conservatively to control frequency in the "turbo range" above the
explicitly OS-controlled P-state frequency range. It may also tell the hardware how aggressively is should enter the OS requested C-
states.
Support for this feature is indicated by CPUID.06H.ECX.bit3 per the Intel Architectures Software Developer's Manual.
Options
-c limits operation to a single CPU. The default is to operate on all CPUs. Note that MSR_IA32_ENERGY_PERF_BIAS is defined per logical
processor, but that the initial implementations of the MSR were shared among all processors in each package.
-v increases verbosity. By default x86_energy_perf_policy is silent.
-r is for "read-only" mode - the unchanged state is read and displayed.
performance Set a policy where performance is paramount. The processor will be unwilling to sacrifice any performance for the sake of
energy saving. This is the hardware default.
normal Set a policy with a normal balance between performance and energy efficiency. The processor will tolerate minor performance compro-
mise for potentially significant energy savings. This reasonable default for most desktops and servers.
powersave Set a policy where the processor can accept a measurable performance hit to maximize energy efficiency.
n Set MSR_IA32_ENERGY_PERF_BIAS to the specified number. The range of valid numbers is 0-15, where 0 is maximum performance and 15 is max-
imum energy efficiency.
NOTES
x86_energy_perf_policy runs only as root.
