Hmm. Interesting. With this change, my results are as follows:

rt_runtime/rt_period   % of reg iterations

0.2                    100%
0.25                   100%
0.3                    100%
0.4                    100%
0.5                    82%
0.6                    66%
0.7                    54%
0.8                    46%
0.9                    38.5%
0.95                   32%


This results are on a quad core blade. Does it still makes sense though?
Can anyone else run the same tests on a quadcore over the latest kernel?
I will patch our 2.6.26 kernel with upstream fixes and rerun these  
tests on tuesday.

Ani
