Hi,

I got the recent source code(approximately 1997/6/5) and
build the new kernel on DEC5000/25 with 40MB of memory and
an RZ25(400MB) HDD. The iozone gives the following results
on 100MB sequential I/O test. Thanks to Mr. Nishimura, the
old kernel(2 months ago) gave 1.6MB/sec for writing. Is that
a known problem?

        347844 bytes/second for writing the file
        1360373 bytes/second for reading the file
        350038 bytes/second for writing the file
        1322456 bytes/second for reading the file
        349362 bytes/second for writing the file
        1337128 bytes/second for reading the file

Thanks,

Takuya.
