On what kernel?
As far as the wakeups go, I thought this was fixed; see for example:
TAKE 977545 - xfsaild causing too many wakeups
on 2.6.27-rc8 with xfs mounted, and powertop 1.9, I don't see xfs up
very high at all:
Top causes for wakeups:
29.4% ( 15.0) <interrupt> : pata_sil680
9.4% ( 4.8) <interrupt> : eth0
7.8% ( 4.0) iscsid : __mod_timer (process_timeout)
...
2.0% ( 1.0) xfsbufd : __mod_timer (process_timeout)
2.0% ( 1.0) xfsaild : __mod_timer (process_timeout)
