I am generally reading 1-2 gigabyte files.
I use XFS and it is often suggested as a good fs (though I think there may be some XFS/nfs issues with 2.6 at the moment - see lkml)

Hi,
just saw a 3ware document with some hints for hardware raid5 they advice to use blockdev --setra 16384
since i'm not using 3ware hardware raid (i'm using 2*7500 3ware's with sw raid5 over 14 disks) i'm wondering if --setra can still improve my raid performance
any hints about this ?
or some other hints, improvements on filesystem ?
i'm currently using blocksize 128, maybe switching to 256 helps ? (with large files)
