Hi Alex, Thanks for your suggestions. Yes we’ve tested the underlying storage. We specifically upgraded drives on the particular testing server I am using at the moment, and are using a ZFS volume.
But to answer your specific questions, # hdparm -t /dev/sda2 /dev/sda2: Timing buffered disk reads: 4118 MB in 3.00 seconds = 1372.43 MB/sec
Also, %iowait remains at 0. I did see it briefly go to %0.13 for one cycle when I sent 2000 simultaneous registrations to Kam.
It doesn’t appear to be the disk subsystem. Amit

I’ve already added the “-“ in front of the log file and that didn’t seem to make any recognizable difference.
That’s the only place that I know.
Have you tested your storage throughput? Even something as simple as `hdparm -t /dev/sda`[1]?
What about monitoring background I/O demand, i.e. `iostat -x 1`? Look at the %util on the drive being written to.
I know you said your log isn’t being written to the local disk, but other storage activity could still be pushing up your I/O base load.
