Well from that it looks like none of the queues get about 255
(hmm that's a round number....)

Fair amount of system time.

There seems to be quite a spread of read performance accross the drives
(pretty consistent accross the run); what makes sdg so much slower than
sdf (which seems to be the slowest and fastest drives respectively).
I guess if everyone was running at sdf's speed you would be pretty happy.

If you physically swap f and g does the performance follow the drive
or the letter?
