Hi,

We ran performance tests on the packed commands patch. We found out that
enabling the read packing didn't improve the performance in any of the
scenarios we ran (see the detailed results below).
Therefore, we suggest to move the read packing code to a different patch
and approve only the write packing code for now. The read packing adds
complexity to the code and we don't see a point in adding it while the
intention is to disable it.

Test results:

Long read operation:
----------------------
no-packing: 39.5 MB/s
packed commands patch (both READ and WRITE packing are enabled): 39.5 MB/s
packed commands patch + enabling only READ packing: 39.5 MB/s

Several parallel read operations (sum of all the read throughputs):
---------------------------
no-packing: 42.6 MB/s
packed commands patch(both READ and WRITE packing are enabled): 38 MB/s
packed commands patch + enabling only READ packing: 38.2 MB/s

Parallel long read and long write operations (read throughput):
-----------------------------------------------------------------
no-packing: 23.8 MB/s
packed commands patch (both READ and WRITE packing are enabled): 12.6 MB/s
packed commands patch + enabling only READ packing: 12.5 MB/s

Parallel short read and long write operations (read throughput):
-----------------------------------------------------------------
no-packing: 22.9 MB/s
packed commands patch (both READ and WRITE packing are enabled): 8.4 MB/s
packed commands patch + enabling only READ packing: 8.6 MB/s

Several Parallel short read and short write operations (sum of all the
read throughputs):
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
no-packing: 41.6 MB/s
packed commands patch (both READ and WRITE packing are enabled): 35 MB/s
packed commands patch + enabling only READ packing: 36 MB/s
