Hello,

What is the recommended kernel "IO Scheduler" for a system with, say, JFFS2 on 
NAND Flash that is basically running a single application for most of its life?

In our current system we've been using the NOOP (i.e. nothing) scheduler. I'm 
currently reviewing and upgrading the kernel so I was wondering if this was the 
best choice?
