I'm gettting *very* near my >disk's max tested speed with Linux. Versions of *BSD w/o clustering will probably give only 1/2 of disk performance on writes. I *normally* get .95 or better of my drivers performance thru the filesystem on FreeBSD on both reads and writes. Apparently there is a difference in his drives configuration.
