SubjectRe: [PATCH][2.6-mm] Readahead issues and AIO read speedup
I ran an Database workload on the test3-mm1 bits and got around 20% 
improvement. These bits have Suparna's readahead_patch.

The number of 4k read requests sent to the driver reduced significantly by
95%. Effectively generating lesser number of larger-size read-requests.

And the number of readahead-window-resets dropped down by 50%.

FYI,
Ram Pai
