8GB no-name class4 mini-SDHC

by Holger Bast

Hi again, I've tested another SDHC card. But this time it was a class-4 mini-SDHC with 8GB. The card is a very cheap one from the German drugstore DM. (No, usually I do not buy my electronics in drugstores ;-) - just a backup card.) Ok, here are the results. I'm not sure, if my interpretation of them is right. I've read, that the choice of the underlaying filesystem depends on the amount of open erase blocks. Is there any rule of best practice for choosing the right filesystem for a particular sd card? Some feedback would be nice!

32GB Transcend SDHC

by Holger Bast

Hi, I'm new to the topic of flash benchmarking. I came across reading several articles about this topic, like these in the German Linux Magazin, issue 07/12 and Arnd's linked article on lwn. I'm currently playing around with a Raspberry Pi that needs a SD card to boot from. (first partition FAT32 for the kernel, second something like ext3/ext4 for the rootfs). I would like to get the 'best' perfomance out of it, so I also had a look at the flashbench tool. I made some tests with my 32GB Transcend SDHC card and found out, that the card has a 8MB erase block size and 8KB pages and can handle up to 5 open-au's. (results are listed below) So what next? The next step for me is to find out, how to align the partitions correctly. I already talked to Andrew (thx! I was wrong with the erase block size.) who send me the following link that points to a script that creates two partitions and aligns them correctly. Is there anything else I can do? ...or am I wrong?

If it can have 6*8MB, that would imply only 3*16MB in the first run. It may be easier to spot the difference between the two when you pass '--random', but some drives don't like that at all. > $ sudo flashbench /dev/sdb --open-au --erasesize=$[12*1024*1024] -- > blocksize=$[6*1024] --open-au-nr=3 > 12MiB 2.88M/s > 6MiB 3.79M/s > 3MiB 4.65M/s > 1.5MiB 6.28M/s > 768KiB 6.22M/s > 384KiB 6.16M/s > 192KiB 6.11M/s > 96KiB 5.96M/s > 48KiB 5.32M/s > 24KiB 3.73M/s > 12KiB 1.95M/s > 6KiB 1.05M/s > > # 12 MB definetely ruled out right. > So, it seems to have 16 MB erase blocks?
