in the past, yes. Complete disappointment.

But it is ok, if the io happens between two very fast drives (ssd - ssd or ssd 
- raid5). So the problem is:
io with one slow drive being written to
swapping

those cases are just horrible.

And vanilla-sources just work. Stable. Even with suspend to ram and ati 
drivers.
