72 hour diagram
The diagram on this slide shows the logging of the enterprise workload. This test attempts to constantly write 3000 IOPS, which is not much considering that the spec often lists values in the range of 30 to 70 thousand IOPS. While the test is running for 72 hours, it reports every minute the finally achieved number of IOPS. The chart shows three different drives. Drive Type B does not have a DRAM and uses only standard overprovisioning. The performance of this drive starts nicely at 3000 IOPS, but then drops within a few minutes to only one tenth of the requested data rate. The high variation, or jitter, shows visually the impact of garbage collection. Drive Type A uses a DRAM buffer, but only standard overprovisioning. This drive also starts at 3000 and soon drops slightly when garbage collection kicks in and causes short term reduction in performance. The Swissbit durabit drive can maintain the requested 3000 IOPS with very little variation. It does not show any signs of performance limitation while running this test.
