Abstract: This paper examines the performance of RAID the First, a prototype disk array built by the
RAID group at U.C. Berkeley. A hierarchy of bottlenecks was discovered in the system that limit
overall performance. The most serious is the memory system contention on the Sun4/280 host
CPU, which limits array bandwidth to 2.3 MBytes/sec. The array performs more successfully
on small random operations, achieving nearly 300 I/Os per second before the Sun4/280 becomes
CPU-limited. Other bottlenecks in ... (Update)

.... does not scale well because memory and I O bus contention during I O operations are serious bottlenecks that limit overall throughput [Che88], Tie94] Thus, to support larger numbers of clients, a CSA must either graduate to faster, more expensive servers, or to increase the...
.... prototype at the University of California, Berkeley revealed poor performance and less than expected linear speedup for large data transfers [35]. The excessive memory copying overhead due to interaction of caching and DMA transfers, and restricted I O interconnect (VME bus)...
