From c86c30706caa02ffe303e6b87d53ef6a077d4cca Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Joe Thornber Date: Thu, 24 Oct 2013 14:10:28 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] dm cache: be much more aggressive about promoting writes to discarded blocks Previously these promotions only got priority if there were unused cache blocks. Now we give them priority if there are any clean blocks in the cache. The fio_soak_test in the device-mapper-test-suite now gives uniform performance across subvolumes (~16 seconds).
