Hmm, in my case the maximum value i can use is 128, and i cannot see a difference between 128 and 16 either. It didn't do harm. My guess that this might impact throughput was based on the assumption that the overhead increases with smaller sizes. I might be wrong. Do you have a max_hw_sectors_kb greater than 128? I think it has changed somewhere during the last kernel versions. I seem to remember that this was 256 once.. Flo -- Palimm Palimm! http://affenbande.org/~tapas/
