Read ahead can cause performance hit on busy database

Linux No comments »
Linux Disk read-ahead can cause some performance hit on OLTP and busy database servers. So I found article on IBM DeveloperWorks about tuning hardware and kernel to turn off read-ahead to gain more transaction per seconds of the database server.

If your database disks have read-ahead enable, It good to turn off especially database that require very very high random-read on busy servers.
