This started some time around 2.5.62-mm3 with the io_load results on contest
benchmarking (http://contest.kolivas.org) rising with each run. It still
occurs with 2.5.63-mm1 regardless of which elevator is specified. This is the
io load result time(seconds) for 6 consecutive runs in compile time:
111
147
221
284
334
358

I am refraining from publishing any benchmark results with this happening. It
doesn't seem to occur on 2.5.63
