                         Setting it to very large values will improve

-barrier=1               This enables/disables barriers.  barrier=0 disables

+barrier=<0|1(*)>        This enables/disables the use of write barriers in
+                        the jbd code.  barrier=0 disables, barrier=1 enables.
+                        This also requires an IO stack which can support
+                        barriers, and if jbd gets an error on a barrier
+                        write, it will disable again with a warning.
+                        Write barriers enforce proper on-disk ordering
+                        of journal commits, making volatile disk write caches
+                        safe to use, at some performance penalty.  If
+                        your disks are battery-backed in one way or another,
+                        disabling barriers may safely improve performance.
 
 orlov           (*)     This enables the new Orlov block allocator. It is
                         enabled by default.
