testing raid 0



Hi, 
I've succesfully configured raid 0 using raidctl on tow hdd (non SCSI; wd)
So I went to the next step of testing but I'm disappointed in the
improvement. Actually it's not an improvement is a loss, I think. Take a
look below:

bash-2.05# mount
/dev/raid0c on /mnt type ffs (local)

bash-2.05# pwd
/mnt
bash-2.05# dd if=/dev/zero of=a.file bs=10m count=15
15+0 records in
15+0 records out
157286400 bytes transferred in 20 secs (7864320 bytes/sec)
bash-2.05# pwd
/
bash-2.05# dd if=/dev/zero of=a.file bs=10m count=15
15+0 records in
15+0 records out
157286400 bytes transferred in 9 secs (17476266 bytes/sec)
bash-2.05# 

Hmmm is this a raid ??? or what is it?

Another thing, check this out:
bash-2.05# iostat 1
      tty            cd0             wd0             wd1           raid0
cpu
 tin tout  KB/t t/s MB/s   KB/t t/s MB/s   KB/t t/s MB/s   KB/t t/s MB/s
us ni sy in id
   1  134  0.00   0 0.00  18.03  12 0.22  15.41   9 0.14  15.25  18 0.27

and :

bash-2.05# iostat 1
      tty            cd0             wd0             wd1           raid0

0  0 38  3 58
....

My raid.conf looks like:
START array
1 2 0

START disks
/dev/wd0i
/dev/wd1j

START layout
32 1 1 0

START queue
fifo 100 

What can I make to work around this problem. I have openbsd29 current.
