I agree with Hannes on this.
The default values are not meant to provide optimal performance ... they are meant to provide an accessible LUN whatever the hardware and on the broader range of Linux kernels. Vendors are responsible to provide their array tuning as hwtable entries. And the size or factorization of the hwtable is not an issue.

Just claiming 'the other one is more advanced' is not enough here.
NACK.
