hi list,
I checked my moblin2 bootchart and found the maximum disk throughput
is only 8MB/s,
However I got 25.21 MB/sec if I test with hdparm -tT /dev/sda.
Why the number is so much different between bootchart and hdparm test?

Below shows my disk information:
-bash-3.2# hdparm -tT /dev/sda

/dev/sda:
 Timing cached reads:   756 MB in  2.00 seconds = 378.02 MB/sec
 Timing buffered disk reads:   76 MB in  3.01 seconds =  25.21 MB/sec
-bash-3.2#

-bash-3.2# hdparm -i /dev/sda

/dev/sda:
