At least, rc1-rc5 have shown that the CCISS system can do well. Now
the question is which part of the system does not cope well with the

Hi,
forgive the stupid question. What is the unit of "nr_writeback"? One would
usually assume a rate, but looking at the code I see it added together with
nr_dirty and nr_unstable, somehow defeating the assumption.

s, I did some tests today with
2.6.22.6+bdi-v9 (Peter was so kind) which seem to indicate that it

Otherwise I would just second your request. It definitely helps the
