| + | Suggested conclusion: accelerator priority is of little relevance, DWC improves block writes significantly, | ||
| + | but has little-to-no other effect. | ||

| + | On the P200, no apparent performance gain with DWC on. Accelerator ratio is fixed on this | ||
| + | controller. Stripe size may have an effect, will not be tested now... | ||
