Benchmark: Kingston DataTraveler 101 DT101 G2 16GB


I was curious about Kingston USB flash performance. The overall performance is poor.

Write performance: 3.7 MB/s
ReWrite performance: 3.0 MB/s
Read performance: 22.5 MB/s
Random Seeks: 4.3 / sec

Comparing to Samsung S2 Portable 500GB USB 2.0 External HD:
9.4 times slower for write
5.7 times slower for rewrite
2.0 times slower for reading
28.79 times less seeks / sec

Full performance output:

[root@ace ~]# bonnie++ -n 0 -u 0 -r 7000 -f -b -d /mnt
Using uid:0, gid:0.

Nice information about such a slow write performance usb stick.

I get crazy waiting to write data on it. I found it fast when I read data. I copied data to format to NTFS and after that took hours to recopy data in it.
If I read your post before I wouldnt format my usb stick.

Thank you

Toshiba R830 and 16GB of RAM

Image
The datasheet of Toshiba R830-10P mentions that the maximum memory capacity is 8GB. See it  here . But Intel says that the i7-2620M supports up to 16GB of RAM. See it here . I have asked for help on Toshiba Forums. Nothing useful from there. See it here . I was curious as I have a very particular need for 16GB of RAM. Today I decided to give it a try. I bought two Patriot PSD38G13332S (8GB PC3 - 10600 1333MHz CL9 SoDimm) and installed it on the notebook. It just worked. So if you have the need for 16GB of RAM and a similar notebook from Toshiba, you can install 16GB of RAM.

Creating 32 bits chroot on 64 bits system

I use Fedora 64 bits on my workstation but I need 32 bits chroot of Debian. It is easy to do. Create the chroot following the instructions from:  http://blog.parahard.com/2013/03/creating-debian-chroot-inside-fedora.html The first difference is that you need to add --arch=i386 to the debootstrap command. Then for entering the chroot add linux32 as the first argument after sudo. Something like: $ sudo linux32 chroot debian-wheezy After that even uname -a will show 32 bits instead of 64. The linux32 tool is on the util-linux Fedora package.

Rumo ao TOP500

Finalmente obtive o resultado da potência do cluster. O melhor número obtido foi 10,27 Gflops. O computador que esta na posição número 500 do TOP500 de 11/2004 marcou 850.6Gflops. O resultado é bom se o preço do cluster for levado em conta. O investimento foi inferior a R$ 20.000,00 ($ 8000,00). Veja a saida do HPLinpack aqui
