 Some documentation suggests that you should use about 40 times the ramsize in your -s parameter, as opposed to 2 times the ramsize. This will obviously take longer, but should sidestep any cache improvements you might see which could influence your results. If you change your bonnie++ command line please make a note of it

 Please make a note of your system specification, in particular the disk IO subsystem, which OS, and which version of bonnie++ you are running.
