Subject:   Terrible SCSI performance with 4.0 -- please help
Message-ID:  <200003272149.PAA14773@alumni.cs.wisc.edu>

I'm running 4.0-RELEASE on a K6-2 with an Adaptec 29160 and some IBM
DMVS18M drives (nice 10k disks), and am getting absolutely terrible
performance.  My setup has a Quantum IDE drive in it as well, and I get
about 2X better read/write performance on the IDE drive than the SCSI
(the SCSI should be a bit faster than the IDE...)

I've tried swapping in an Adaptec 2940 to no avail, so it's not the 29160
specifically; I've tried moving the disks to another (Linux) box and the
drives work perfectly fine, so it's not the drives/cables.  I don't know
what else to try, even what other info to send out as diagnostics.

Apologies if this is not the right list; I'm running out of ideas, please
point me to the right list if nothing else.  Thanks a lot.

- Matt
