Subject: Re: [RFC patch 0/2] sched: dynamically adapt granularity with
nr_running
You found improved latencies with something like the below as well,
right? Except your proglet needs timers to be special too iirc.
Thomas objected to 'special' wakeups, and I can fully appreciate why,
but maybe we could try it anyway, its only a reasonably soft hint
anyway.
( full series with changelogs at:
programming.kicks-ass.net/sekrit/sched-patches.tar.bz2 )
I'm currently running it on my laptop, and while spread is reasonably
controlled, interactivity isn't too sucky, but its not too hot either.
(I did lower my min_gran to like 1/5th of latency)
