Subject: Block IO throttling disabled in distros

Hi,

Both RHEL6 and Ubuntu 10.10 have block IO throttling disabled in their kernels. Does anybody know why that is? Are there performance or stability issues with the throttling controller or does it somehow negatively interfere with the rest of the kernel and/or system?

Thanks
...Juerg
