From bda8efec5c706a672e0714d341a342e811f0262a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mikulas Patocka Date: Sun, 29 May 2011 13:03:09 +0100 Subject: dm io: use fixed initial mempool size Replace the arbitrary calculation of an initial io struct mempool size with a constant. The code calculated the number of reserved structures based on the request size and used a "magic" multiplication constant of 4. This patch changes it to reserve a fixed number - itself still chosen quite arbitrarily. Further testing might show if there is a better number to choose. Note that if there is no memory pressure, we can still allocate an arbitrary number of "struct io" structures. One structure is enough to process the whole request.
