We have investigated more deeply the performance of BFQ, in terms of number of IOPS that can be processed by the CPU when BFQ is used as I/O scheduler. In more detail, using the script [1], we have measured the number of IOPS reached on top of a null block device configured with zero latency, as a function of the workload (sequential read, sequential write, random read, random write) and of the system (we considered desktops, laptops and embedded systems). Basing on the resulting figures, with this commit we update the current, conservative IOPS range reported in BFQ documentation. In particular, the documentation now reports, for each of three different systems, the lowest number of IOPS obtained for that system with the above test (namely, the value obtained with the workload leading to the lowest IOPS).

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
