A recent note related to read vs. write speed actually shows about a 40%
degrade in write speed from 2.6.8. I hope 2.6.9 will be held back at
least a few days in hopes of verifying or debunking that. I have some
results showing "slower" by about 30%, but it was just production runs,
not benchmarks.
