Given the amount of I/O wouldn't it make sense to get more drives
involved or something that has cache on the front end or both? If you're
really pushing the amount of I/O you're alluding too - Hard to tell
without all the details - then you're probably going to hit a limitation
on the drive IOPS. (Even with the cache on.)

Our application Canary has approx 750 clients uploading to the server
every 10 mins, that's approx 108,000 gzip tarballs per day writing to
the /upload directory. The parser untars the tarball which consists of
8 ascii files into the /archives directory. /app is our application and
tools (apache, tomcat, etc) directory. We also have batch jobs that run
throughout the day, I would say we read 2 to 3 times more than we write.
