I have an Adaptec 2940 with 2 matched 1GB SCSI-2 drives, 5400rpm, 10ms access.
Using dd bs=1m count=128 if=/dev/da0s1e of=/dev/null, I get 4MB per second, 
and about the same with 8k blocks.  Using CCD with an interleave of 512, and
the same dd, I get 1MB per second.  Increasing the interleave to 65535 improves
performance to a miserable 1.7MB per second.  Forgetting interleave and just
concatting them doesn't do any better.

I have a p133, by the way.

Is the abysmal performance normal on my hardware?  I'm using 3.0-19981123-SNAP.
