At this time I didn't change the scheduler. In fact, I actually learned about it a few days ago... So it was SuSE 9.3 default (might be vanilla default, don't know) What would you recommend for cyrus? (or for ext3 running cyrus)? And are there prefered scheduler for other fs, too, especially reiser and xfs?
