Even hot-cache? My perception is that in hot-cache conditions the perf is good.

If it is cold-cache, what in the end you are hoping for is "pegging"
some stuff in the cache. Perhaps there's a way to tell the kernel to
skew the cache eviction scheme. Still, if the kernel's algorythms are
good, the kernel knows more about your fs usage patterns than you
do...

cheers,
