Can TFS handle my large projects? (July Dogfood stats)

And the answer is Can it what! Brian Harry has posted the July dogfood stats for the developer division TFS server and the figures are amazing. They have now reached over 33 MILLION files under source control in TFS. In the last week alone, they have handled 335,821 WI queries and had 25,066 get operations.

They have also done quite a lot of investigation around IOPS (I/O’s per second) for their SAN and as a result have ordered a new SAN. Check out the stats on this baby;

  • 43 disks
  • RAID 0+1
  • 4 disk shelves are needed to hold these 43 disks.
  • 31x300GB disks for data
  • 12x146GB disks for Log and TempDB
  • </UL>

    Make sure you read Brian’s full post to get all the details.
