Hi This is a proposal to change the default IO scheduler on Kubuntu from deadline to CFQ for HDD's.
== Why ? == File indexing on KDE depends on certain features such as IO niceness which are only provided by CFQ and not deadline. Switching from deadline to cfq allows baloo to make use of these features so as to not trash the user's disk with IO reads/writes. == How? == I'm planning on introducing a udev rule that will switch this out for rotational media ( SSD users will remain unaffected ) on Monday. Feel free to air any concerns you might have over here. -- Regards Rohan Garg -- kubuntu-devel mailing list kubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-devel
