No need to that in the BIOS, setting that via linux-cpupower and similar tools is enough. Another thing that can help is this: net.ipv4.tcp_low_latency=1 But all of these are to get last drop of IOPS out if you are already gettings lots of IOPS, it's not something that helps if your disk is only getting 1000 IOPS.
