Well, there are multiple avenues to nail down your specific issues,
most documented or hinted at in the archives of this list.....
Here is some fuel for thought, on a higher plain:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Btrfs
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/B-tree
So you have at least (2) issues.
1. Your specific hardware
http://www.coker.com.au/bonnie++/
bonnie is also in portage
[eix bonnie]
2. The longer view of increasing
file system performance, particularly
in a distributed resources environment:
(CEPHGS, GlusterFS, BTRFS, others?) is the subject
of a hot debate, probably overdue for the devs
or the brilliant, on this list, to update
us commoners? (here goes another religious war!)
hth,
James
