# [筆記] 測試 USB 3.1 Gen2 NVME SSD 外接盒 & 內建pci-e ssd & 外接SATA SSD / Bencmark With External Internal Nvme Ssd and External Sata Ssd
some articles about job,food,passion sisters

前幾天在淘寶上買了個 SSK 的USB 3.1 Gen2 (type-c) NVME SSD 外接盒 手邊也剛好有一條多的intel 600p nvme ssd 就順手來做個比較 目標是看看有沒有可能直接用外接的SSD來跑postgresql

把600p 裝進去外接盒之後，就先來看一些簡單的資訊 不過沒想到用了幾個指令，都沒辦法辨別出正確的型號

#### fdisk

沒有看到廠牌、型號

    2019-09-10 13:20:55 [minion@hqdc075 ~]$ sudo fdisk /dev/sdb

    Welcome to fdisk (util-linux 2.31.1).
    Changes will remain in memory only, until you decide to write them.
    Be careful before using the write command.

    Command (m for help): p

#### inxi

內接的intel ssd 有看到，不過外接的這顆SSD沒有model 可是可以看到序號 我在想這個序號應該是外接盒的序號，而不是SSD的？

    2019-09-10 13:21:51 [minion@hqdc075 ~]$ sudo inxi -Dxx
    Drives:    HDD Total Size: 640.2GB (11.3% used)

    2019-09-10 13:21:55 [minion@hqdc075 ~]$

#### dmesg

一樣，也是認不出 SSD ，但是有抓到外接盒

    [16622.930915] hub 4-0:1.0: USB hub found
    [16622.930926] hub 4-0:1.0: 2 ports detected

#### 直接測試吧

不看型號了，直接測試吧！先切好分割、格式化，然後掛載到 /mnt，再用 dd 測試寫入 結果如下

可以發現，當寫入8G檔案的時候，速度開始急遽下降 翻了一下google 看到這張表格

https://www.anandtech.com/show/10850/the-intel-ssd-600p-512gb-review

intel 600p 256G 的SLC Cache 只有8.5GB 合理解釋了為什麼當寫入8G的檔案時，速度會掉那麼慘，跟SATA硬碟差不多了

#### 用iobench 測試看看

得到一樣的結論，8G左右，就會把cache塞暴，然後掉速

    2019-09-10 13:44:59 [changch@hqdc075 iobench]$ sudo ./iobench.sh --sync --dir /mnt --megabytes 8192
    Target directory: /mnt

    Done.
    2019-09-10 13:47:40 [changch@hqdc075 iobench]$

那如果不用8G的檔案大小來測試呢？看起來是比較正常一點

    2019-09-10 13:47:40 [changch@hqdc075 iobench]$ sudo ./iobench.sh --sync --dir /mnt --megabytes 4096

#### 跑看看pgbench ??

試試看這次的目標，用 external nvme ssd 跑資料庫，會不會跟放在本機的PCI-E SSD 有所差距？

#### data_directory in internal pcie-ssd

run pgbench 可以看到兩邊的結果其實是差不多的，作為資料庫備份是一定沒有問題 至於能不能直接作為資料庫空間使用？我想也許可以嘗試看看..

    postgres@hqdc075:~$

update:

剛剛看了一下，發現這樣只有測試到 read (select only) 或許要找找看其他的測試方法

接下來直接用 restore 測試

    #### restore 5G database with external nvme ssd
    postgres@hqdc075:~$ createdb demo
    postgres@hqdc075:~$ time psql demo < /tmp/demo.sql
    SET
    ...
    ALTER TABLE

    real	4m1.184s
    user	0m2.894s
    sys	0m0.504s
    postgres@hqdc075:~$

#### restore 5G database with internal pci-e nvme ssd

    postgres@hqdc075:~$ dropdb demo
    postgres@hqdc075:~$ createdb demo
    postgres@hqdc075:~$ time psql demo < /tmp/demo.sql
    SET
    ...
    ALTER TABLE

    real	4m1.636s
    user	0m2.909s
    sys	0m0.612s
    postgres@hqdc075:~$

看起來是沒有什麼區別，那如果是外接的 SATA SSD呢？

dmesg 看得到型號耶..

restore 5G database with external sata SSD

很意外的，速度居然還是差不多？？

    postgres@hqdc075:~$ createdb demo
    postgres@hqdc075:~$ time psql demo < /tmp/demo.sql
    SET
    ...
    ALTER TABLE

    real	4m9.950s
    user	0m2.752s
    sys	0m0.640s
    postgres@hqdc075:~$

run pgebnech

這個差很多了，tps 從前面的 26000 掉到剩下 2800 ，差十倍左右！

    postgres@hqdc075:~$ pgbench -t 10 -c 100 -S -U postgres pgbench
    starting vacuum...end.
    transaction type: <builtin: select only>
    scaling factor: 10
    query mode: simple
    number of clients: 100
    number of threads: 1
    number of transactions per client: 10
    number of transactions actually processed: 1000/1000
    latency average = 35.267 ms
    tps = 2835.526770 (including connections establishing)
    tps = 2855.642604 (excluding connections establishing)
    postgres@hqdc075:~$

疑問：

1. 什麼原因會讓外接/內建 nvme ssd 和外接SATA SSD 在 restore db時，花了差不多時間，但是 tps 差異那麼大呢？
2. 這樣測試，似乎沒有真正測出外接nvme ssd 跑資料庫時候的效能？
