and that is because it was considered and rejected because of XYZ reaons (or lack of sufficient reasons) or simply something thats not been evaluated. I would argue the following problem is a side effect of not having fair I/O scheduling. http://opensolaris.org/jive/thread.jspa?threadID=121374&tstart=0 But again I find it hard to believe no read preemption takes place. What happens while executing a read you memory fault and need to issue other reads clearly these new reads initiated by OS cannot be ordered. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org
