Hello everyone!

I thought I'd make my first post something of interest on the performance front.

So, has there been any technical performance measurements taken of disk drive performance on single vs many installs?

If so, I have not been able to find it as of yet and would appreciate a link to it.

If not, I'd like to know if this is the proper part of the forum for this as I have some time to do system profiles this weekend when I'm on call since I'll be stuck at home.

Also, as a side note, I've not seen any study of read vs write disk access either to see which side of the disk I/O is higher. If anyone has any hard numbers for that I'd appreciate it.
