4.1.2.2 Steady workload
This section details the performance once the environment achieves a steady workload state. This is the most
important phase of the testing and the most common production state. The user experience is defined by how
the storage performs in this state. Figure 3 shows the performance level of an SC7020 array.
Performance during steady state
Under full user workload, the I/O load generated is 164,000 IOPS. This equates to just over 54 IOPS per user.
Even at this load, the latency is only 800 microseconds on average.
This is a very heavy user load and shows how well an SC7020 array can perform under a heavy load.
