io scheduler for solidfire
Our testing shows the NOOP scheduler to significantly outperform the default scheduler for solidfire. In fact, we show a 2 second latency when moving a 1GB file to the array w/o noop. Would it be possible to set the io scheduler appropriately if solidfire is configured?
This probably affects the other drivers that use iscsi as well, and we should look at possibly using udev to set iscsi device io schedulers to noop or similar.
It may be best to have a default attribute overall which is then overridden by specific driver recipes if a different scheduler is found to work better for that driver.
