From 1253f577fa162b9170b22f3c543167aa99795920 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Richard Jones Date: Mon, 7 Jun 2010 15:29:31 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Use the noop scheduler inside the appliance. In my limited tests, this seems to make a small but noticable difference, improving the performance of some straightforward read operations by a little over 10%.
