hehe welcome to my world ;-)

Seriously though, I appreciate all the effort you put in trying to
explain things. I feel I do understand things now, although I might not

I'll go read the v9 patch-set you send out and look at some of the
details (such as pos_ratio being comprised of both global and bdi
limits, which so far has been somewhat glossed over).
