I knew this article would get some people talking on here. Mind you, I did feel some results wasn't quite right and he was using ATA 100 IDE. Would be interesting to see how SCSI and SATA goes on there.
It would have been better if all the filesystems had been tuned up also I think looking at that article they were all left in their default state.
Default vs tuned would be ideal.
Another thing I would liked to have seen was perhaps benchmarks related to apache, NFS, sql and Samba performance (etc.) when using these filesystems rather than just raw disk operations as usually once you have the data off the disk there is subsequently a network operation involved.
Now that's something I like to see, I would like to see some real world testing as well (but how to construct that is going to be difficult).
