Interesting. That contrasts with some tests I did a while back on a
16-disc RAID-0, where noop, deadline, and anticipatory were all identical
in performance, with cfq being significantly slower. Admittedly, the disc
test was single-process, which is probably why the anticipatory behaviour
didn't kick in. You are seeing a little bit of degradation with cfq - I
guess it's worse the bigger the disc subsystem you have.
