Not wholly OT ...

Running some benchmarks for a customer, and doing a little baseline performance gathering. This is Windows 2008 RC2 32 bit on one of our JackRabbit units.

Well, it appears that there is either a bug in the performance counter, or the JackRabbit is simply too fast ...

Have a look at http://scalability.org/images/Screenshot-small-1.png . The other measures seem to be working properly. Average is ~1.35 GB (writes) but it bounces around a bit. Looks like it overflows at 2^31-1 or so ... So we hit these bursty regions we get into that ... negative ... performance :)

Either that or we are doing something horribly wrong (won't discount that either). At least it is amusing.

Back to your regularly scheduled cluster.
