Subject: Re: Regression in latest sched-git

Hi Dhaval,

How does this patch (on top of todays sched-devel.git) work for you?

It keeps my laptop nice and spiffy when I run

let i=0; while [ $i -lt 100 ]; do let i+=1; while :; do :; done & done

under a third user (nobody). This generates huge latencies for the nobody 
user (up to 1.6s) but root and peter don't seem to get above 40ms
