Almost everything I do on Linux has been with ext3.  I had a previous 
diversion into VxFS and an upcoming one into XFS that may shed more 
light on all this.

And, yes, the whole I/O scheduling approach in Linux was just completely 
redesigned for a very recent kernel update.  So even what we think we 
know is already obsolete in some respects.
