Hi all,

whats the best iosched for openvz servers. I found:

"The deadline scheduler uses five I/O queues to keep track of I/O. It's
designed to emphasize
average read-request response time for workloads that seek all over the
disk."

Maybe the deadline scheduler is better than using the default cfq?

deadline may provide overall more system throughput, but the OpenVZ I/O 
priorities are an extension of the CFQ elevator so no CFQ = no I/O 
priorities.
