For the record: I tested both the "delaylog" and "logbsize=262144" on
two systems running Fedora 14 x86_64 (kernel version
2.6.35.10-74.fc14.x86_64).


Test No.	Mount options
1		rw,noatime
2		rw,noatime,delaylog

I do not see any significant improvement in any of the parameters -
especially when compared to the serious performance degradation (down
to 44% for block write, 42% for block read) on system A.
