You are starting with the last step.
First, get your Elevator I/O scheduler reviewed [1] and show some data

Then get your Elevator I/O scheduler included in Linus' tree.
Then you might perhaps schedule the Deadline I/O scheduler for removal.

There are three kinds of lies: Lies, Damn Lies, and Statistics.
