Three copies of the 2.4.19 kernel tree were placed on an ext2 filesystem.
Measure the time it takes to copy them all to the same filesystem, and to
then sync the system. This is just
cp -a ./dir-with-three-kernel-trees/ ./new-dir
sync
The anticipatory scheduler doesn't help here. It could, but we haven't got
there yet, and it may need VFS help.
2.4.21-pre4: 70 seconds
2.5.61+hacks: 72 seconds
2.5.61+CFQ: 69 seconds
2.5.61+AS: 66 seconds
