Some more details:
dd, with block size 512b
------------------------
raw spindle : 143
writeboost Type 0: 137
writeboost Type 1: 130
dd, with block size 4k
----------------------
raw spindle : 31
writeboost Type 0: 29
writeboost Type 1: 81
dd, with block size 64m
-----------------------
raw spindle : 8.9
writeboost Type 0: 32
writeboost Type 1: 72
So maybe it's just volume of IO that's causing the problem? What's
the difference between Type 0 and Type 1? In the code I notice you
have 'rambuf' structures, are you caching IO in memory?
