Next test:
block: 1024 slots per queue, batch=341
Wrote 600.00 MB in 71 seconds -> 8.39 MB/s (7.5 %CPU)
Still very spiky, and during the write disk is uncapable of doing any
reads. IOW, no serious application can be started before writing has
finished. Shouldn't we favour reads over writes? Or is it just that
the elevator is not doing its job right, so reads suffer?
