Performance

[glennswest]

I know everyone hates to read such a heading. Just wait.

Built me a new workstation/lab with promox being the foundation.

I have a full up ventura vm running gpu/usb passthru, plus:

1. fedora 38 boot.gw.lo - pxe boot server
2. Rhel7 dns.gw.lo. - A Enterprise class dns server (using a database as backend)

3. Kube cluster bootstrap vm - coreos based
4 Quanity 3 - control nodes - coreos based - 16gig - 4 cores
5 Quanity 3 - worker nodes - coreos based - 16gig - 4 cores


Hardware is a 20 core total 13th gen - mid tier 125watt tdp processor(Intel), with 192gig of ddr 5 ram, and 2 m.2 2tb disk pci gen4
Ventura on the lvm m.2 drive
On the rest on the slooooooooooow seagate sata drive.

The good news - Its sooooo blasted fast.
The bad news - Its even faster if its on lvm ssd. - need one more drive.

But spending all weekend setting up scripts, its really a dream machine.

Thanks everyone for your hard work.

I made an iops performance test between:
4x 990 pro 2tb as zfs raid10 (mirror+stripes)
4x 990 pro 2tb as mdadm raid10 with lvm

The read iops on lvm are around 1,5x faster
The write iops on lvm are around 2-3x faster

I personally stick with zfs, because i need the zfs features more as the iops speed, but it's still maybe interesting to some ppl.

Cheers

Btw, another comparization:
I have an lowend 13th gen NUC i3-1315
and an highend Ryzen 5800x pve server.

I have more, but those 2 are the interesting ones.
However, it feels like the 13th gen i3-1315 is snappier in every way and faster as my Ryzen 5800x PVE Server....
But benchmarks tells me that i imagine that.

To be more precise, the benchmarks tells me, that the 5800x is twice as fast.
For example an browser benchmark inside an Windows VM.
Both Servers with only 2cores for the VM.

But the overall feeling inside the VM between the 13th gen i3 and 5800x, makes me imagine that the i3 is faster

Maybe because of ECC on the Ryzen, or i really have imaginations

Cheers

How well can you cool your 5800X? Here I have the problem that my big 2x 120mm an tower cooler can't cool the 5800X. Even when setting it to eco mode (so limited to 65W instead of the normal 108W) the CPU is always thermal throttling at 90 degree. But not sure if it is a bad CPU (heatspreader not flat enough or heatspreader badly soldered to die) or a bad cooler (its a Scythe Mugen 5 ARGB Plus). Repasted it 5 times and contact looks fine.

Its an X570D4i-2t board with ibmc... thats why i have all that info...
just copy & paste.

Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut as Paste.
Cpu is not overclocked, but runs at spec.
But my ECC Memory is Slightly overclocked to 3200mhz.

Do you have any chance to measure the temperature of the cooling plate somewhere?
Just to see if the heat gets spreaded?

What i mean is, its really strange, never seen an faulty 5800x, but i don't believe that the mugen is that bad or that you repasted 5x shitty...

If it helps, i have an 5600x in the office and one 5900x, both are paired in an nzxt H1 (with that built-in 120mm AIO)
They never run hotter as 50c.
But if i do an benchmark, they do spike to ~77c(5600x) or ~85c(5900x) for a very short time, but without throttling.
But they spike to ~77c if i open outlook, thats funny tho.

However, on 3x Ryzen, i have no thermal issues.
