From 4a36d08d0d1cba0581d1656739102ce936f26557 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Bob Peterson Date: Tue, 14 Feb 2012 14:49:57 -0500 Subject: GFS2: Sort the ordered write list This patch sorts the ordered write list for GFS2 writes. This increases the throughput for simultaneous writes. For example, if you have ten processes, all doing: dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/gfs2/fileX on different files, the throughput will be much better.
