There was probably a much easier way of do this, but anyway. In the first shot I monitored what occurred during a 4K AS SSD Benchmark. (I disabled the other tests from running). Theory being that this would show the max IOP capability with 4K reads and writes.
The maximum IOP read rate was 5,037, write 9,872.
Next I monitor a couple of hour’s general usage. I ran a SP & MP game and most of the programs I typically use.
The maximum IOP read rate was 1,788, write 236.
Next I update the AV data base and run a full AV scan, without resetting the general use metrics.
The maximum IOP read rate was 3,484, write 375.
It seems that even with an average queue depth of one I can’t get close to using the available read IOP’s capability of my SSD. As for write IOPs….
