UBUNTU: SAUCE: Improve Amazon EBS performance for EC2
OriginalAuthor: Amazona from Ben Howard <behoward@amazon.com>
BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/634316
The pv-ops kernel suffers from poor performance when using Amazon's
Elastic block storage (EBS). This patch from Amazon improves pv-ops
kernel performance, and has not exhibited any regressions.
