Still using bfq on all el8 osd servers?:)

yes we are. do you have a better suggestion?

Nope, we chose as well bfq. My question for double check for right choice. Thanks.

Seems cfq has been gone in kernel 5. (https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=0e9da3fbf7d81f0f913b491c8de1ba7883d4f217)
Will you use bfq or mq-deadline instead?

bfq
