Subject: [BUG] imx6qdl: degraded eMMC write performance
Date: Tue, 10 Dec 2019 15:44:52 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAFfN3gV-kAhDE6=EBJetWT0+T8hgq5tUXAn0qzwK2Q7c8-wsUQ@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hi,

I've updated barebox for our custom platform from v2015.06.0 to
v2019.12.0. With the new version I have noticed a much worse write
performance onto the onboard eMMC.

With v2015.06.0 the indicated progress of the copy command is very
smooth. Calling "cp -v /dev/zero /dev/mmc3.root" takes about 80
seconds for 256MB. But with v2019.12.0 the progress is very bumpy and
the copy takes about 280 seconds.

I've tracked this down to this commit which destroys the performance:
"block: Adjust cache sizes" (b6fef20c1215c6ef0004f6af4a9c4b77af51dc43)

Regards
Hubert
