SubjectRe: CFQ read performance regression
From
Date
Jens, Corrado,

Here's a graph showing the number of issued but not yet completed
requests versus time for CFQ and NOOP schedulers running the tiobench
benchmark with 8 threads:

http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/mszeredi/blktrace/queue-depth.jpg

It shows pretty clearly the performance problem is because CFQ is not
issuing enough request to fill the bandwidth.

Is this the correct behavior of CFQ or is this a bug?

This is on a vanilla 2.6.34-rc4 kernel with two tunables modified:

read_ahead_kb=512
low_latency=0 (for CFQ)

Thanks,
Miklos
