Check out linux.com, specifically the "tuning linux" section.

I completed the IDE config and gained a 50% read speed increase.
I used to get at 95% system utilization when transfering alot of files
between drives, now its down below 20% with the DMA enabled.

Also note the tuning section has some notes about defraging EXT2, I know
this was a issue on this list a couple of weeks ago.
