You're thinking about "noatime", aren't you?

What else? block-size at filesystem creation? bytes-per-inodes?

I think the options of my RAID controller are rights. Except maybe that its read-policy mode is set to "adaptive" instead of "read-ahead only". And I could also increase the strip size from 64k to 128k.

However, I doubt that only tweaking these parameters will give me the performance boost I need.
