Hi,
I'm getting timeouts on the scsi bus when I increase the number of
COMMANDS/LUN from 4 to 8. (I haven't tried anything higher - is there
any point?). This is consistantly reproduceble using "bonnie". Any
ideas? Also "bonnie" measurements seem kinda low for this setup...
I'm running:
Supermicro P6DNE 180Mhz x 2 (2.0.26 SMP kernel), 32 MB ram
