I see. I'll probably drop the last one, as it only complicates things.

My apologies for misleading terminology. Read-only QD1 (submit and
wait until the userspace completes it) obviously won't saturate a CPU.
Writes probably wouldn't as well (though, depends on HW). And it would be
better to say -- submit by one, complete in a bunch.
Just curious, what you used for testing? Is it fio?
