Except for the fact that other FSes on the same hardware get far better performance. These were my results using 2 7506-8 boards, each in hardware RAID5 mode, with a software RAIDO on top:

Did you do any other tuning to get the ext2 numbers? I have two 7506-4 boards that I can only seem to get 13/117 out of.

Well, keep in mind that ext2 number was across 2 8 port boards. So, I wouldn't expect to see much better than 20 on a single 4 port.

As for tuning, you'll have to read through the thread I referenced before. That testing was over a year ago -- I have trouble remembering what I had for lunch yesterday.
