EMC – Silly things you can do with stress testing – Part 1

I have a whole swag of things I want to talk about with regards to EMC CLARiiONs and stress testing with SQLIO. But the posts are still forming and I want to be sure that what I put on the internet is accurate (a novel concept, I know) before I publish them. But what I can show you is the performance of our 4Gbps FC ports when running a particular read test on EFDs. In this instance you can see how, conceivably, the 8Gbps FC fabric becomes useful. At least for benchmarking.
