Ah. So my question remains, do you have highmem enabled? If you do,
also try without highmem with and without speedup patches.
Number of peoples raised a question about Andrea Archangelli's patch
that went into 2.4.19-pre5 to improve I/O throughtput wrt several allocation
zones.
I myself see throughtput decrease with highmem on.
