If more than one group is active, then idling is not needed only if a lot of symmetry conditions also hold: - all active groups have the same weight - all active groups contain the same number of active queues - all active queues have the same weight - all active queues belong to the same I/O-priority class - all dispatched requests have the same size Similarly, if only one group is active, then idling is not needed only if the above last three conditions hold. The current logic, including your changes up to your previous patch, is simply ignoring the last condition above. So, unfortunately, your extra information about varied request size should be used in the opposite way than how you propose to use it.
