Do you remember on which kernel version you observed the above behavior ? This might be a bug in the CFQ scheduler. I found the following in the 2.6.28 changelog: "cfq-iosched: fix queue depth detection". See also http://www.eu.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/ChangeLog-2.6.28 or http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/8/22/39.
