I sent this reply in response to the first Adrian's first e-mail, that
had bogus e-mail addresses for akpm and sct, so resending it here:


Have you actually benchmarked these patches, ideally with a fixed
filesystem image so the two runs are done requiring exactly the same
number of blocks to recover?  We implement ordered I/O in terms of
doing a flush, so it would be surprising to see that a significant
difference in times.  Also, it would be useful to do a blktrace before
and after your patches, again with a fixed filesystem image so the
experiment can be carefully controlled.

Regards,
