With this backported to netbsd-8 on a cubieboard2 with a (quite old) ssd:
Before:
/home/bouyer>dd if=/dev/zero of=test bs=1m count=2048
2048+0 records in
2048+0 records out
2147483648 bytes transferred in 69.385 secs (30950257 bytes/sec)
/home/bouyer>dd if=test of=/dev/null bs=1m
2048+0 records in
2048+0 records out
2147483648 bytes transferred in 26.114 secs (82234956 bytes/sec)
after
/home/bouyer>dd if=/dev/zero of=test bs=1m count=2048
2048+0 records in
2048+0 records out
2147483648 bytes transferred in 44.674 secs (48070100 bytes/sec)
/home/bouyer>dd if=test of=/dev/null bs=1m
2048+0 records in
2048+0 records out
2147483648 bytes transferred in 23.644 secs (90825733 bytes/sec)
So it's clearly an improvement here.
