VIVEK_SHARMA,

		Hi, did you have benchmark result or other whitepaper talking about this thoery?
		For db file sequential read, it is single block read to index and then to table, so i think enlarge the maxio size of the os won't help?(I just guess, did not test it).
		Enableing AIO or using raw device maybe will help io performance, thus give reduced io wait, i think.
	Good luck
