Anyway, there are still some strange things happening when effective_io_concurrency is non-zero.

I was researching whether I could optimize a concatenated lvm2 volume when I have disks of different speeds (concatenated - not striped - and I think I can if I concatenate them in the right order - still testing on that front), when I came across this article from a few years ago:
In the article he talks about the performance of parallel io on different file systems.
Since I am already running XFS that led me to this tunable:
Which brought me back to this discussion about effective_io_concurrency from a couple of weeks ago. I noticed that the recent round of tests being discussed never mentioned the file system used. Was it XFS? Does changing the agcount change the behaviour?
