Attached is this trivial patch. As Merlin says, it needs some more
reliability testing. But the numbers are at least reasonable - it
*seems* like it's doing the right thing (as long as you turn off write
cache). And it's certainly a significant performance increase - it
brings the speed almost up to the same as linux.
