For ssds the best scheduler to use is noop, there is no point shuffling around data to optimise for mechanical hard disks when accessing what is essentially a random access disk. That is another gripe I have with the disk schedulers in ubuntu, for flash drives the scheduler should ALWAYS be noop.

One thing I've noticed since I've changed to deadline is that when I get to the GDM login screen, it's significantly less responsive. Today, it actually took about 15 seconds before I could type in my login and password. I did do lots of hardware changes, though. Might it have been the computer

I can confirm the massive increase using the deadline schedule. I'm writing it right now while I'm executing the dd command, and it's only hiccuped once, and not by much at all. It's almost like it's back to where it used to be on responsiveness. 95 percent there. -- CFQ may not be the right
