From 4d00aa47e2337dcfe2d8a7215dbde3765b507167 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jeff Moyer Date: Tue, 21 Apr 2009 07:25:04 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] cfq-iosched: make seek_mean converge more quickly Right now, depending on the first sector to which a process issues I/O, the seek time may start out way out of whack. So make sure we start with 0 sectors in seek, instead of the offset of the first request issued.
