Hey,

New day, new benchmark. Berlin has two hard drives, which are roughly
used this way:

/dev/sda -> / (916G)
/dev/sdb -> /gnu (37T)

I ran the fio benchmark tool on both of them. See the reports
attached, and the following summary:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
|       | sda       | sdb       |
|-------+-----------+-----------|
| read  | 1565KiB/s | 9695KiB/s |
| write | 523KiB/s  | 3240KiB/s |
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

I'm not sure how slow those figures are relatively to the hard drives
technologies. Ricardo, any idea about that?

My own NVME hard drive has 294MiB/s read and 98.1MiB/s write with the
same test in comparison.

I also tried to benchmark file removal this way, but this is not really
conclusive:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
# 3.8s on sdb
time for i in {0..100000}; do echo 'test' > "fs_test/test${i}.txt"; done

# 2.7s on sdb
time rf -rf fs_test
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Thanks,

Mathieu
