The elevator is per physical device. For SSD use noop. But with your setup is doesn't matter as md/RAID will run at rust speed. A better solution is to remove the SSD partition from the md/RAID array, reshape/shrink/rebuild the array to make it happy, whatever is necessary after removing the SSD partition. Now configure the SSD partition as bcache and enable writeback policy. This will increase the performance of the rust array to SSD level for writes, and for reads after frequently accessed data is cached in your SSD. -- Stan _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@xxxxxxxxxxx http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
