I'll try to > convert async and slow work. btw for async, it is essential that all the scheduled async functions runs as soon as possible; so make sure that no async work is held back for lack of threads.. just make more immediately. (the async work is rather latency sensitive, in general it is <poke hardware> <wait a long time> <done>, the <poke hardware> step needs to be done as soon as possible to cut down the total time; latencies are often cumulative in async due to dependencies) -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
