anybody explain it?

Looks like this is strangeness #2 which we uncovered in our tests (the first
one was earlier in this thread why the context RA doesn't work with
cooperative I/O threads as good as it should).

Can you rerun the same 11 tests over a file on the file system, please?

I'll see what I can do. Just te be sure: you want me to run
blockdev-perftest on a file on the OCFS2 filesystem which is mounted
on the client over iScsi, right?

Yes, please.

Ronald.
