Package: linux-image-2.6.16-1-686-smp
Version: 2.6.16-11bpo1
Severity: normal
The sync speed of RAID devices is only 2000K/sec by default. It's
because the raid driver don't honor
/proc/sys/dec/raid/speed_limit_max and is using speed_limit_min as
the max.
speed_limit_min is 1000 by default, if I increase the number for 5000,
the sync speed of the RAID increases to 5000K/sec. If I increase to a
bigger number the sync speed of the raid maxes on hardware capability.
I believe in the kernel 2.6.16 the RAID driver use speed_limit_min as
the max, and ignores speed_limit_max. On kernel 2.6.8 the behaviour
seems to be correct, the RAID driver honors speed_limit_max.
