--- Comment #7 from rainer@ultra-secure.de ---
The hardware is HP DL380 Gen 8 servers with 600 or 900 GB SAS disks, running
off a HW RAID controller.

On local storage, the realworld-test is even slower.

I can't run the dc3dd test here and it's apparently a bit more complicated =
now
to create VMs from a template on local storage now that we have completely
eliminated it from our offerings.

dc3dd is just a tool to securely wipe a disk.
I found, because it takes the filesystem out of the equation, that it's a n=
ice
benchmarking tool.
Also, the results of dc3dd correlate directly with the results of the testc=
ase
(in PHP) that the customer has built.
