Subject: BLKRASET (ra_pages) on a per partition basis
Date: Mon, 30 Jun 2014 15:45:47 +0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <882e8e779e724990b242ecdab21c484d@lycos.com> (raw)

Hello,

I wonder how difficult and feasible would be to implement per partition 
readahead settings.

Currently the Linux kernel sets readahead for the entire device, as 
opposed to individual partitions and that's absolutely inconvenient.

For instance, I don't want large readahead numbers for my / and /home 
partitions, however for my /mnt/media partition setting a high readahead 
value would be very beneficial.



Artem
