Hello,

I have 16GB orange eMMC v0.4 module for Odroid C2. I have installed on it Armbian Debian Stretch Next (mainline kernel).

When I run iozone I got read results that is slower than eMMC Hardkernel specs. 

root@odroidc2:~# iozone -e -I -a -s 100M -r 4k -r 16k -r 512k -r 1024k -r 16384k -i 0 -i 1 -i 2
	Iozone: Performance Test of File I/O
	        Version $Revision: 3.429 $
		Compiled for 64 bit mode.
		Build: linux

On Hardkernel Ubuntu when I run iozone I have max ~50 MB/s write and ~133MB/s read, but on Armbian only max ~86 MB/s read. Why is that?

Driver differences I assume hard kernel is on vendor kernel, we use mainline, I don't have the hardware (eMMC) so I can't test.  It's also important to note which eMMC, some have issues the others dont

@Strykar

So You have also too small read speeds on Armbian: https://wiki.odroid.com/accessory/emmc/reference_chart ("ODROID-C2 + Black eMMC Performance Test of File I/O").

The exact module you have would be helpful if I had any module, but unfortunately I don't.  Now, for both of you, please provide the output of armbianmonitor -u as is requested of all community members on submitting an issue.  Then, perhaps, if we know anything at all about what kernel and hardware you have, we can see if anything obvious shows up within Armbian, or if perhaps @Neil Armstrong is aware of something/recognizes a potential issue in the drivers.  It could be something simple like a speed being removed from the device tree due to instability with the mainline MMC driver, or something more complex such as an issue with tuning.
