[[v6.8.x] Parity check slower than before in certain cases]

Still no improvement with 6.8.3.

I thought I would check back here - mine seems to have improved back to what it was before. Now under 6.8.3. Will see if the next parity check is about the same. Perhaps it was a once off.

[[v6.8.x] Parity check slower than before in certain cases]

Recently upgraded to Unraid 6.8.0 - after a few hiccups with the Nerd Pack - and have also noticed a drop in performance (see attached). Storage is a very old array that hasn't been changed in years - 4TB max, across 4 data drives, 1 parity, 1 cache (SSD/SATA). 

 

System hardware was upgraded last year to a TR2950X with 32GB RAM, which should be more than capable!

 

While I don't have massive or fast data access needs (hoping to upgrade and add faster drives soon), it would be great to maintain performance - is there any work around yet? Or just wait for the next release? I can live with it for now; it's stable at least.

 

Cheers,
