if anything elevator=deadline seems to cause higher iowait and for longer periods (I even saw a 100% for it with that setting) when running trackerd
average iowait values when tracker is flushing to disk during heavy indexing of same files:
for feisty 2.6.20-15 : 90-95% for 2.6.22-9 : 90-99% for 2.6.22-9 with elevator=deadline: 95-100%
