9 lazy write workers? I haven't seen mentioned that high before.

Is there something like a rule of thumb for this, or a relation between how
much disk intensive an application is, the disk throughput and the number of
lazy write workers? Is there a trade-off, for example more lazy write workers
need more memory? If so, how much?

It always depends on your system usage, I know. :)

HR> Yes, disk caching is the most recent parameter on it.

I don't know what you mean with this. Can you clarify this? Didn't you use the 
cache command before?
