9 | The no-op I/O scheduler is a minimal scheduler that does basic merging | |
10 | and sorting. Its main uses include non-disk based block devices like | |
11 | memory devices, and specialised software or hardware environments | |
12 | that do their own scheduling and require only minimal assistance from | |
13 | the kernel. | |

19 | The anticipatory I/O scheduler is generally a good choice for most |
20 | environments, but is quite large and complex when compared to the | |
21 | deadline I/O scheduler, it can also be slower in some cases | |
22 | especially some database loads. | |

27 | ---help--- | |
28 | The deadline I/O scheduler is simple and compact, and is often as | |
29 | good as the anticipatory I/O scheduler, and in some database | |
30 | workloads, better. In the case of a single process performing I/O to | |
31 | a disk at any one time, its behaviour is almost identical to the | |
32 | anticipatory I/O scheduler and so is a good choice. | |

38 | The CFQ I/O scheduler tries to distribute bandwidth equally | |
39 | among all processes in the system. It should provide a fair | |
40 | working environment, suitable for desktop systems. | |
a8e14b95 | 41 | This is the default I/O scheduler. |
