Thanks, Tim. I should have said clearer: All the numbers I showed are 
before I changed the IO scheduler.

I don't believe changing the IO scheduler could make such a big 
improvement. I just think that there is no moving parts here with the 
SSD so the IO scheduler should not add any overhead which may be helpful 
for disks with plates/heads.
