It is correct for older kernels:
With older kernels you could turn it off by setting it to 0, and it was
off by default.
With newer kernels, it's on by default, and there is no way to turn it off.
So with older kernels, you could have been hitting similar slow downs,
but you would have never seen the timeouts, io errors, etc.
