Well, this is a stable kernel, and the patch does adversely affect overall throughput. There are two changes to the elevator in that patch. One is a modest speedup for all workloads which, frankly, I'm inclined to drop. The other is the part which gives the improved responsiveness. Being a cautious chap, I think I'll submit that patch, with the default setting to "off", so there is no change to default kernel behaviour. Then people can run `elvtune -b' to enable it. - - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/ | ||||||||||||
