[DRBD-user] Anything else I can try to speed up Sync?

Note: "permalinks" may not be as permanent as we would like,
direct links of old sources may well be a few messages off.


Is there any other tweaking I can try to get more speed out of the sync?
I am currently limited to around 16M network speed on my 100M private
network.
