From c8a4051c3731b6db224482218cfd535ab9393ff8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Sandeen Date: Fri, 31 Jul 2009 00:02:17 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] xfs: bump up nr_to_write in xfs_vm_writepage VM calculation for nr_to_write seems off. Bump it way up, this gets simple streaming writes zippy again. To be reviewed again after Jens' writeback changes.
