In the URL above it's mentioned that it would cause a performance hit and has therefore been disabled in the config. However, delay accounting can be disabled by passing nodelayacct as a boot parameter (see Documentation/accounting/delay-accounting.tx). I have not seen actual numbers confirming this performance hit - and I'd like to have TASK_DELAY_ACCT, so that things like iotop (a helpful tool that actually *helps* tracking I/O performance issues!) are useful again.
