I think you may be right about the default, though I suspect that emulated VMs might do better with the no-op module and rely on the host I/O scheduler. (I didn't benchmark anything.) For physical MC680x0 hardware with an IDE SSD, perhaps with IDE-SCSI converter, you'd probably want to use the no-op module also. -- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
