I think the interface developed in [1] is a pretty good one
actually. I think
the disksort-routines looked as a good place to do this. Even there it might
not know enough about the hardware.

This is an example of the problems you get doing this in GEOM. You
don't have
very good knowledge of the hardware.
One can't pass this info from the lower layers up into GEOM (maybe by
adding some attribute querying interface in GEOM if it doesn't exist)?
Bye,
