Can anyone help explain what does "out-of-order issue" mean in the
following segment?

ZFS has a pipelined I/O engine, similar in concept to CPU pipelines. The
pipeline operates on I/O dependency graphs and provides scoreboarding,
priority, deadline scheduling, out-of-order issue and I/O aggregation.
I/O loads that bring other filesystems to their knees

handled with ease by the ZFS I/O pipeline.


Thanks,
Annie
