Here are some results obtained during runs where we varied the number of
 readers & the multi-block read counts. 5 runs per rq_affinity setting
were done, and the averages are plotted at:

http://free.linux.hp.com/~adb/jens/08-09-05/by_mbr.jpeg

In all cases we are seeing a noticeable improvement in reduction of
elapsed time to perform the tasks, and again we are seeing much tighter
deviations with rq_affinity set to 1:
