Makes some sense, I guess. However it could lead to spurious IO errors under high load since some disk arrays are known to take longer than 10 seconds to finish an IO operation under extremely heavy loads.
I'm not convinced that enterprise systems need latency more than reliability, but maybe that's ust me ;)
