Linux ext3fs file write performance
Noting this down so I don't forget ...
hdparm buffered read test:
48 megs/second.
Writing small files (from Python):
100,000 1400-byte files (133 megs) in 24 seconds.
i.e. 4000 1K files per second.
-- 5.5 megs/sec, but all over the place.
Writing huge files (from Python):
1Gb in 35 seconds.
-- 28 megs/sec.
