Another interesting thing to consider is whats happening to I/O in different parts of the datapath. I think disk I/O is advancing at around 20% of capacity and if you examine whats happening to network I/O a similar picture of asymmetry appears. Therefore you are also seeing the whole memory hierachry is changing with SSD's effectively extending the cache layer and then thngs can get really interesting.
