If you didn't configure QoS targets, the controller is using device qdepth saturation as the sole guidance in determining whether the device needs throttling. Please try configuring the target latencies. The bandwidth you see for single stream of rand ios should have direct correlation with how the latency targets are configured. The head letter for the patchset has some examples. Thanks. -- tejun
