fs/buffer.c: increase the buffer-head per-CPU LRU size Increase the buffer-head per-CPU LRU size to allow efficient filesystem operations that access many blocks for each transaction. For example, creating a file in a large ext4 directory with quota enabled will access multiple buffer heads and will overflow the LRU at the default 8-block LRU size: * parent directory inode table block (ctime, nlinks for subdirs) * new inode bitmap * inode table block * 2 quota blocks * directory leaf block (not reused, but pollutes one cache entry) * 2 levels htree blocks (only one is reused, other pollutes cache) * 2 levels indirect/index blocks (only one is reused) The buffer-head per-CPU LRU size is raised to 16, as it shows in metadata performance benchmarks up to 10% gain for create, 4% for lookup and 7% for destroy.
