Hello Ben,
The default will be set in a common interface fsl_sata_set_irq_coalescing when
initialize the controller. This interface will check the range of intr count
and ticks and make sure the values are reasonably.
It's hard to find a aggressive value to adapt all scenarios, so I use echo to adjust
the value. I remember P5020 have some performance issue, I will check it.
BTW, which filesystem do you use? Ext2 is lower than ext4 because metadata is
continuously wrote to disk. You can try ext4 or xfs.
Thanks.
