31 * if the disk is capable of satisfying them.
33 #define default_write_expire (HZ / 4)
36 * read_batch_expire describes how long we will allow a stream of reads to
37 * persist before looking to see whether it is time to switch over to writes.
39 #define default_read_batch_expire (HZ / 2)
42 * write_batch_expire describes how long we want a stream of writes to run for.
43 * This is not a hard limit, but a target we set for the auto-tuning thingy.
44 * See, the problem is: we can send a lot of writes to disk cache / TCQ in
45 * a short amount of time...

56 * however huge values tend to interfere and not decay fast enough. A program
57 * might be in a non-io phase of operation. Waiting on user input for example,
58 * or doing a lengthy computation. A small penalty can be justified there, and
59 * will still catch out those processes that constantly have large thinktimes.
