Dear Piergiorgio, In message [ref] you wrote:
raid6check is CPU bounded, no vector optimization and no multithread. Nevertheless, if you see no CPU load (single core load), then something else is not OK, but I've no idea what it could be. Please check if one core is up 100%, if this is the case, then there is the limit. If not, sorry, I cannot help.
No, there is virtually no CPU load at all:

What I find interesting is thet all disks are more or less
constantly at around 400 kB/s (390...400, never more).

That's their goal, remember, a goal that's really contrary to that of
the programmer or administrator. We just want to get our jobs done.
$Bill just wants to become $$Bill. These aren't even marginallly
congruent.
