Does the time taken to remove the thin device change as you drop it to one?

Not that I am aware of, but I redo the experiment and the results are listed below.
#define MAX_DECS 1
Delete a fully-mapped 10TB device without concurrent I/O takes 49 secs.
Delete a fully-mapped 10TB device with concurrent I/O to pool takes 44 secs.
#define MAX_DECS 16
Delete a fully-mapped 10TB device without concurrent I/O takes 47 secs.
Delete a fully-mapped 10TB device with concurrent I/O to pool takes 46 secs.
#define MAX_DECS 8192
Delete a fully-mapped 10TB device without concurrent I/O takes 47 secs.
Delete a fully-mapped 10TB device with concurrent I/O to pool takes 50 secs.
Thanks,
