I tested this change with a 256GB DDW which did not map the whole partition, with a MT27700 Family [ConnectX-4 Virtual Function]. I noticed the performance improvement is about the same as using DDW with IOMMU bypass. 64 thread write throughput: +203.0% 64 thread read throughput: +17.5% 1 thread write throughput: +20.5% 1 thread read throughput: +3.43% Averag e write latency: -23.0% Average read latency: -2.26%
