Subject: Re: [PATCH 3/6 v3] cfq-iosched: Introduce vdisktime and io weight
 for CFQ queue

Haven't read the whole series yet. Looks this changes a lot of logic
even without cgroup support. Did you have test if this changes both
performance and latency in some mixed workloads?

don't consider sync/async here? for group, we don't have such issue, but
we need boost sync otherwise.

cfqq->slice_resid could be > 0 or < 0, and the queue can be boosted or
penalized. Looks the logic is completely removed. This exists in current
cfq group too, I wonder why?

not just priority, original rb_key considers sys/async too.
