Have you kept trace of what filesystems are in use ?
Almost everything I do on Linux has been with ext3. I had a previous
diversion into VxFS and an upcoming one into XFS that may shed more light on
all this.
it would be nice if you could try ext4 when doing your tests.
It's new enough that I won't trust it for production data yet, but a lot
of people are jumping on it as if it was just a minor update to ext3
instead of an almost entirely new filesystem.

And, yes, the whole I/O scheduling approach in Linux was just completely
redesigned for a very recent kernel update. So even what we think we know is
already obsolete in some respects.
