anticipatory or cfq io scheduler?

Hi everyone,

FC2 defaults to the cfq io scheduler but when I compiled my own kernel 
(2.6.6), it defaults to the anticipatory scheduler.  I know how to 
change this back to cfq in the kernel command line but what I'd like to 
know is whether there is any difference between the two schedulers.  Is 
one better than the other?  Thanks.

Best regards,

Steve.
