Carl,

based on your token bucket solution I've implemented a run-time leaky
bucket / token bucket switcher:

# leaky bucket #
echo 0 > /cgroups/foo/blockio.throttling_strategy
# token bucket #
echo 1 > /cgroups/foo/blockio.throttling_strategy

The -rc of the new io-throttle patch 2/3 is below, 1/3 and 3/3 are the
same as patchset version 3, even if documentation must be updated. It
would be great if you could review the patch, in particular the
token_bucket() implementation and repeat your tests.

The all-in-one patch is available here:
http://download.systemimager.org/~arighi/linux/patches/io-throttle/cgroup-io-throttle-v4-rc1.patch

I also did some quick tests similar to yours, the benchmark I've used is
available here as well:
http://download.systemimager.org/~arighi/linux/patches/io-throttle/benchmark/iobw.c

In conclusion, results seem to confirm that leaky bucket is more precise
(more smoothed) than token bucket; token bucket, instead, is better in
terms of efficiency when approaching to the disk's I/O physical limit,
as the theory claims.

It would be also interesting to test how token bucket performance
changes using different bucket size values. I'll do more accurate tests
ASAP.
