Yes. Should I drop patches 4-6 in the next version and wait for swap
tiering to be finalized?
We can try to get the non-memcg parts (patches 1-3) merged upstream
first. This would also give them plenty of time to bake and catch any
potential regressions. Thoughts?
Patches 1-2 can be sent and merged separately, yes. For patch 2,
please include some numbers for the writeback performance before and
after batching.
I'd love to collect some performance data. Do you have any recommended benchmarks for this?
Thanks,
Hao
Patch 3 does refactoring in preparation for patch 4, so I don't think
it makes sense on its own.
