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

|

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

|

config IOSCHED_DEADLINE

tristate "Deadline I/O scheduler"
|
||

|

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

|

---help---
|
||
|
|
The CFQ I/O scheduler tries to distribute bandwidth equally
|
||
|
|
among all processes in the system. It should provide a fair
|
||
|
|
working environment, suitable for desktop systems.
