Filesystems vs raw devices on Linux (?)

There was a mention at the RAID roundtable at IOUG-A Live! 2002 on some results published in this whitepaper:

http://www.quest.com/whitepapers/Linux_Maximus_Part2.pdf

The general consensus was that the test was most likely flawed, but with no specifics given. I am curious as to what was the problem. I heard from someone just as I was leaving that session and heading for the airport, that there had been a recent discussion of this paper in this forum. I evidently missed it when I was "out" for a few days as my ISP changed.

If I remember correctly, Stephane Faroult was mentioned as having shed some light on it. (Wish I had known this earlier - I spend quite a bit of time with him there!)

Does anyone have any pointers, light to shed, or other information. Even just the date(s) and/or subject line of the thread would be nice - so I could find it in the oracle-l archives at www.orafaq.com .

Thanks!
