Uh, I think it is reasonable to assume that disk drives have contiguous block numbers (except for replacement blocks of course). Sorting by block number is the most optimal way of sorting that we can do in FreeBSD.
If you knew physical cylinder boundries, you could do gathering, as well.
In SCSI II, it's possible to know this. It's also possible on all ST506 and ESDI hardware, and, I think, on EIDE.
I'm sure that, now we've brought it up, it will be implemented in Linux next week... 8-(.
