Ok I have enclosed the results for the recent readahead fixes. The summary is: there is no significant improvement or decrease in performance of (DSS workload, iozone, sysbench) The increase or decrease is in the margin of errors. I have enclosed a patch that partially backs off Miklos's fix. Shane Shrybman correctly pointed out that the real fix is to set ra->average value to max/2 when we move from readahead-off mode to readahead-on mode. The other part of Miklos's fix becomes irrelevent. Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
