This improvement sounds really nice and i would be happy to test it. One 
question though: in RAID1 it is theoretically possible to get the same 
sequential read speed as in RAID0. Does this patch fix this as well? 
Ofcourse more IOps is very nice for multiuser servers, but more 
(sequential) MB/s is nice too for NAS purposes etc.

Thanks!
