Re: small i & power systems (disk performance)

Somewhere in the archives I have an entry where I moved from 42 disk arms
down to 7 and got a much better performance picture. I ran BPCS period
end's and everything to compare. And the machine with the 42 disk arms
had it's lan cable yanked and was pretty much dedicated to that testing
with most other tasks ended. The 'live' machine was not so constrained
yet still had great performance doing the same tests with active comm and
users working away on it.

Today's newer drives and controllers will blow the doors off of those.
