Default appears to be 128 and I was getting 40MB/second
Increasing to 256 takes me up to 48MB/second
Increasing to 512 takes me up to 53Mb/second

Any further increases don't do anything that I can measure

Is increasing read_ahead_kb good for general performance, or just for 
impressing people with benchmarks? If the kernel spent time reading ahead woult 
it hurt random read/write performance?

Thanks
